THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11.06.2021,
THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
BAIL APPL. NO. 4511 OF 2021
2
ORDER
Application for regular bail.
2. The petitioner is the second accused in Crime
No.192 of 2021 of Kodanad Police Station, Ernakulam
District registered for the offences punishable under
Sections 341, 294(b) and 307 r/w Section 34 of the
Abkari Act.
3. The prosecution allegation is that the
petitioner along with the accused due to their enmity
towards the defacto complainant on 18.04.2021 at
about 4 pm, wrongfully restrained him and abused him
in filthy language and with the intention to cause
his death attacked him and caused severe injuries
with deadly weapons such as chopper and sickle.
Thereby, committed the aforesaid offences.
4. The petitioner has been in custody since
20.04.2021.
5. According to the learned counsel for the
petitioner he is totally innocent of the allegations
levelled against him. In fact, he has been falsely BAIL APPL. NO. 4511 OF 2021
implicated in this case. He has also pointed out
that the learned Sessions Judge had already granted
bail to the first accused. But this petitioner is
undergoing incarceration for the last more than 15
days.
6. The learned Public Prosecutor has submitted
that the investigation is practically over.
As the investigation has progressed
considerably, I think that further detention may not
be required in this case. Moreover, the other
accused had already been granted bail. But as this
petitioner is having criminal antecedents, this
application is accepted imposing some stringent
conditions :
(i) The petitioner shall be released on bail on his executing a bond for a sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One lakh only) with two solvent sureties for the like sum each to the satisfaction of the court having jurisdiction. One surety shall be close relative.
(ii) He shall also appear before the Investigating Officer on every Monday and Friday between 10 and 11 am for a period of two months or till the final report is filed, whichever is earlier.
BAIL APPL. NO. 4511 OF 2021
(iii) The petitioner shall not directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence.
(iv) The petitioner shall not commit any offence while on bail.
In case of violation of any of the
above conditions, the learned Magistrate is
empowered to cancel the bail in accordance with
the law.
