In offences of this nature, especially under Section 376 IPC, detailed order sheets are often not fully reflected on public portals due to sensitivity, though basic case status appears. It is also correct that once coercive processes like NBW are issued under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, your personal appearance becomes crucial.

The repeated issuance of NBW strongly indicates that the court considers you to be absconding. If proclamation proceedings under Sections 82-83 CrPC have been initiated or completed, you may indeed be treated as a proclaimed offender, which significantly worsens your legal position.

At this stage, the risk of arrest is real and immediate. Once NBW is in force, the police can arrest you at any time. Anticipatory bail is legally maintainable, but practically difficult where NBW has already been issued and especially if proclamation proceedings have begun, courts often view this as evasion of process. The position has been discussed in cases like Lavesh v. State (NCT of Delhi), where the Supreme Court of India held that relief under anticipatory bail is generally not granted to an absconding accused. Therefore, while filing for anticipatory bail before the Sessions Court or even the High Court is an option, success depends on how convincingly you explain your absence and demonstrate willingness to cooperate.

Practically, the most realistic course, though difficult, is to regularize your appearance. This usually means either (i) moving anticipatory bail urgently with full disclosure and appearing through counsel, or (ii) surrendering before the trial court and immediately applying for regular bail. Courts are often more inclined to grant bail when the accused shows bona fide by surrendering rather than evading. You may also approach the High Court seeking interim protection or a stay of arrest, but that is not easily granted in serious offences. At this stage, continuing to remain absent will only aggravate matters; your priority should be to come within the legal process in a controlled manner with a proper legal strategy.

1. From your contents it clearly indicates that there's a non bailable warrant issued against you which the police couldn't execute for various reasons as stated in the history of the case.

2. You can be arrested if you don't surrender and get the warrant recalled.

3. Since there's a NBW pending against you, first you have to get it recalled and file an application for regular bail, rest other things will be taken up during trial proceedings only.

4. In my opinion you may better change the lawyer.

5. You can obtain bail through him and then decide about continuing the case through him or not.

6. First you obtain bail and participate in the trial proceedings which will be on your own interest instead of keeping away from the case on misguidance.

7. That may not protect you from the law which is already against you.

8. Don't be under such misconception.

9. In that case after obtaining bail you may file a petition to quash the FIR before high court.

Your queries are answered point-wise as under:
From the eCourts status, it is clear that the case is active and has progressed beyond summons to issuance of BW/NBW due to your continuous non-appearance. The court is now directing the police to execute warrants and secure your presence.
The immediate outcome, if you continue to remain absent, can be arrest pursuant to NBW. Once you appear or are produced, the case will proceed further towards supply of documents, charge, and trial.
To avoid arrest and jail, the correct legal course is to immediately approach the court through a lawyer for anticipatory bail (if still maintainable) or surrender and apply for regular bail along with an application for recall/cancellation of NBW. Courts generally grant relief if approached properly.
Advising you to remain underground at this stage, especially after issuance of NBW, is not a sound legal strategy. You should seriously consider taking a second opinion and proceeding to regularize your court appearance.
The earlier statement that the case would be closed by police is incorrect at this stage, as once the matter is before court, it is under judicial control. The step regarding anticipatory bail is correct in principle, but delay and non-appearance have worsened your position.
Your next steps should be to immediately verify the exact case status through your lawyer or by obtaining certified copies, and move appropriate bail/recall applications before the concerned court without delay.
Yes, your brother or any representative can attend the court proceedings. Criminal courts are generally open, and they can observe proceedings or obtain basic information from the court staff.
The case has not cooled down. On the contrary, procedurally it has escalated due to repeated absence and issuance of warrants.
Settlement in such matters does not automatically close the case as offences like rape are non-compoundable. However, in certain cases, parties approach the High Court for quashing based on settlement, which is discretionary and depends on facts.
In conclusion, your immediate priority should be to address the NBW and secure bail. Remaining absent will only aggravate the situation. Once your presence is regularized, you can effectively defend the case on merits.

Based on the case history you have retrieved from the eCourts portal, the situation is serious, but the path forward is clear. The online record directly contradicts your lawyer's suggestion that the case is "90% closed." Instead of disposal, the court has been consistently attempting to secure your presence, and the proceedings have now escalated to the issuance of a Non-Bailable Warrant (NBW) against you .

The "Case Stage: ISSUE BW/NBW" and the history of multiple "PO (Proclaimed Offender)" remarks indicate that the court considers you to be absconding. This is the most critical phase of the case. An NBW empowers the police to arrest you immediately upon finding you, and it significantly weakens your position to claim that the relationship was consensual . Your lawyer's strategy of advising you to remain "underground" for nearly three years has backfired, as it has led to this warrant. A competent lawyer would typically advise you to proactively seek legal remedies, not avoid the court indefinitely.

You are now at a crossroads. Your lawyer's advice is not only incorrect but dangerous. The priority must shift from hiding to surrendering legally. Your lawyer should immediately file to recall the NBW and apply for regular bail . You will likely need to surrender before the court, but with a good lawyer, you can be released on bail on the same day. Remaining abroad while an NBW is active will severely limit your options and may lead to the issuance of a Look Out Circular (LOC) at the government's request, which would prevent you from re-entering India.

Regarding your brother, while his name may not be in the FIR, the police can technically enter any premises to execute a warrant or investigate a crime scene if they have reasonable grounds. If they harassed him, he should file a formal complaint against the police conduct with the Superintendent of Police or through a separate petition in court.

Your Recommended Next Steps:

1. Change Your Legal Strategy Immediately: Confront your current lawyer with the eCourts evidence. If he insists the case is closing, fire him immediately. You need a new, reputable criminal defense lawyer in Hyderabad who specializes in quashing cases and handling NBWs.

2. Verify the Case Status Yourself: You can use the eCourts services portal to independently verify the status. Use the "Case Status: Search by FIR Number" option, select your police station, and enter your FIR number and year . This will give you the same information the judge sees.

3. Take Action on the NBW: Your new lawyer must file an application to recall the NBW and surrender on your behalf. This is the only legal way to stop the coercive proceedings .

4. Do Not Settle with the Opposite Party: Given that they have already filed a false rape case after a failed compromise, paying them for a settlement will likely not close the criminal case (rape is non-compoundable) and will expose you to further blackmail. Fight the case legally through discharge or a quashing petition after securing bail .

5. Hire a Private Detective: To answer your earlier query, there are several established detective agencies in Hyderabad (e.g., Venus Detective Agency, Ion Detective) that can conduct legal background checks on the complainant to find evidence of her filing other false cases or to locate witnesses who can testify that she was never at your brother's house . This evidence can be crucial for your defense.

Your health has deteriorated because you are in a state of perpetual fear and uncertainty. The cure is to face this legally. Surrendering to the court's jurisdiction to get bail is not an admission of guilt; it is the first step towards proving your innocence and stopping the harassment of your family. Prolonging your absence will only worsen the situation.

If it’s fake case file quashing in HC and get it quashed 

You must appear in court apply for setting aside NBW issued against you 

2) you are making a mistake of not appearing in court 

3) don’t send your sibling 

4) change your lawyer 

5) if you settle with your gf then can apply for quashing of case in HC 

Dear client

The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 has made your case a serious issue even though the name of the law has changed & severity of the law has not. The prior law of 376 of the Indian Penal Code (Rape) is now primarily charged under Section 64 of the BNS and Cheating as per Section 420 of the IPC corresponds to Section 318 of the BNS. Both of these offences are serious & non-bailable.

The fact that there have been repeated entries of "Accused absent" in your file and a Non-Bailable Warrant (NBW) have been issued means that the court is actively seeking to force you into court. Therefore, the case status is solidifying against you and is escalating. If you are again a no-show, the possibility of arrest is imminent and/or the possibility of a declaratory judgement's danger is real.

Your attorney's suggestion for you to disappear is an unsafe legal course of action. You should immediately consult with an independent and reliable attorney, review the court records to determine the appropriate court date, and file for anticipatory bail or determine the legal way to surrender with regular bail.

Since the hearings in this matter will continue to be public, your brother can attend the hearings and verify the status of the case.

An approach to settling this matter will not be easy since the charge of Rape is a non-compoundable offence; however, High Courts have quashed charges of Rape in a limited number of cases. Time is of the essence.
