    Case Summary: CRM-M-11955-2026 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana quashed the proclamation order declaring Rajiv Kumar a proclaimed offender, finding it violated mandatory procedural requirements under Section 82 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The lower court failed to record that Kumar had absconded or was evading arrest, issued the proclamation without ensuring the mandatory 30-day notice period was completed before adjournment, and did not issue a fresh proclamation upon adjournment as legally required—all procedural violations that vitiated the proceedings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
