    Summary: CRM-M-8757-2025 The Punjab and Haryana High Court quashed the November 2, 2016 order declaring Harjinder Singh Nijjar a proclaimed offender, finding that the trial court violated mandatory Section 82 Cr.P.C. procedures. The court determined that no fresh proclamation was issued after adjournment and the requisite 30-day notice period wasn't properly complied with, particularly since the petitioner was abroad and no service through embassy channels was attempted. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
