P.C. : 2 The accused in the instant case has been granted permission by this Court to be away from the Country. It is stated by the learned Counsel for the appellant/ accused that the accused is at present in high seas and it is difficult to contact him. The presence of the accused in this appeal, is necessary because of the fact that the State has filed an appeal for enhancement of the sentence imposed on the accused. If the sentence is to be enhanced by the Court, the presence of the accused is very much necessary. In the circumstances, it is not possible to hear the appeal unless the accused appears before the Court. It is, therefore, directed that the accused be directed to remain present before this Court by 26.02.2009. It appears that the record and proceedings of the Trial Court in this case, have been sent to Bombay. Those records be called from the Bombay registry immediately. C. L. PANGARKAR, J. SMA
