The State of Maharashtra & Anr. ...Respondents. Shri.Milan Desai i/b Rishi Bhuta for petitioner. Mrs.M.M. Deshmukh APP for the State. Mr. D.N. Salvi for respondent No.2. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J DATED : 03/08/2006 P.C.:- 1. Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner's counsel. He seeks time on the ground that advocate on record is not well. 2. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondents vehemently opposed the request made on behalf of the petitioner. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents submitted that the petitioner has filed this petition for setting aside non-bailable warrant which is issued against him. Matter was adjourned from time to time on the request of counsel / 2 / for the petitioner. On all these dates petitioner himself could not remain present and E-Mail has been sent by the petitioner through his counsel which has been placed on record, which is dated 11th March, 2006 in which he states that he is presently in the US and that he is winding up his business and settling all accounts with creditors/debtors as well as employees of the company. It is submitted that he will return to India by the end of June. In spite of this E-Mail, petitioner has not either returned or appeared before this court or in the Sessions Court. No interim relief has been granted in this petition. It is obvious that the petitioner is absconding. There is no reason, therefore, to adjourn this case. The writ petition, accordingly is dismissed.
