You can add below command to check the file present or not in destination path..

Code:
CopyFilesInfo() {
    for FileNameIndx in "${PATHNAME[@]}"
      do
      if [[ -e "dest_path/$FileNameIndx" ]]
      then
      ls -ltr "$FileNameIndx" | grep root | awk '{print string path $9}' string="$CONSTANT" path="$FileNameIndx"  >> "$FileName"
      echo "$FileNameIndx is copied"
      fi
    done
}

Let me know if you still have doubt..
