    Case Summary: CRM-M/27430/2026 The High Court of Punjab & Haryana quashed the order declaring Hira Singh a "Proclaimed Person" in a Section 138 Negotiable Instruments Act case, finding his absence was due to genuine medical grounds (hospitalization and subsequent bedridden state) rather than willful default. The court held that procedural non-compliance in proclamation proceedings renders them void and, considering the petitioner's willingness to surrender and readiness to join trial, allowed him one opportunity to appear. Hira Singh was directed to surrender before the trial court by May 25, 2026, and shall be released on bail upon payment of Rs. 10,000 costs and furnishing surety bonds with an undertaking to attend all future hearings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
