Dated this the 19th day of October, 2023.
ORDER
Apprehending arrest in Crime No.1106/2023 of Kadakkal Police
Station, Kollam District, registered for offences punishable under Sections
406, 416, 419, 420, 463 and 464 of the Indian Penal Code, the petitioner
has filed this application under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure seeking pre-arrest bail.
2.The prosecution allegation against the petitioner is that the
petitioner with an intention to defraud the defacto complainant and others,
received Rs.1,25,000/- and received several papers from the defacto
complainant promising him to secure an admission at Karanataka
College of Nursing and fraudulently secured a loan of Rs.3,95,000/ from
Grayquest Education Finance Pvt. Ltd. and availed another loan in the
name of the brother of the defacto complainant for Rs.7,00,000/- from
Grayquest Education Finance Pvt. Ltd. on the promise of providing
admission in B.Sc Nursing course and did not secure admission to the
defacto complainant and to her brother nor return the money. Thus the
aforesaid offences are charged against the petitioner.
3. I have considered the rival contentions.
4 It is seen that this Court had granted an interim order dated
9/8/2023, at the time of admission of this case wherein petitioner was
directed to surrender before the Investigating Officer within a period of two
weeks from the date of the order subjecting himself to interrogation.
6. The learned counsel on either side submits that pursuant to the
above order, the petitioner had appeared before the Investigating Officer
as directed and has been released on bail. The said order was in force for
a period of foure weeks from 9.8.2023.
7. In such circumstances, I am inclined to pass an order making the
earlier interim order absolute, subject to the following conditions:
1. The petitioner shall cooperate with the Investigating Officer and
shall appear as and when directed by the Investigating Officer.
2. The petitioner shall not intimidate or attempt to influence the
witnesses, tamper with any evidence, or get involved in similar
offences while on bail.
3. The petitioner shall not leave India without permission of the
jurisdictional court.
4. In case of violation of any of the above conditions, the
jurisdictional Court shall be empowered to consider the application
for cancellation, if any, and pass appropriate orders in accordance
with the law.
It is made clear that it is within the power of police to investigate the
matter and if necessary to effect recoveries on the information, if any,
given by the petitioner, even when the petitioner is on bail as per the
judgment of the Apex Court in Sushila Aggarwal and others V. State
( NCT of Delhi) and another [2021 (1) KHC 663]
