A 24-year-old man who pleaded guilty to assault and possession of an imitation firearms failed to appear for his sentencing hearing on Friday at the London Courthouse.
Randeep Singh entered his guilty pleas in this case in November.
He was arrested after a road rage type incident in the Mornington Avenue area in east London in September of 2022.
After his arrest, officers executed a search warrant and seized replicas at his home.
Singh was ordered and expected to show up for his sentencing hearing and when he didn't, Justice Brian White issued a bench warrant.
Singh's lawyer Robert Warren also removed himself from the case and requested to be off the record.
