Holding

The court corrected the father's name in the cause title and granted an eight‑week extension for surrender, subject to a Rs.5,000 deposit and submission of the receipt with the bail bond.

Summary

The petitioners, Akbar Ali Ansari and his son Meraz Hussain, filed a criminal miscellaneous petition seeking modification of an earlier order dated 17-11-2025. The modification was requested to correct a typographical error in the cause title where the father's name was incorrectly recorded as 'Mizamuddin Miya' instead of 'Nizamuddin Miya', and to obtain an extension of the period allowed for surrender. The court noted the inadvertent mistake and granted the correction in the cause title. Additionally, the court extended the surrender period by eight weeks, subject to the deposit of Rs.5,000 with the District Legal Services Authority and furnishing the receipt with the bail bond. Consequently, the modification petition was allowed, and the earlier order was altered accordingly.
