ORDER
These Bail Applications are filed under Section 439
of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cr.P.C.)
2. The petitioners in these cases are accused in
Crime No.363/2024 of Fort Cochin Police Station, Crime
No.302/2024 of Hill Palace Police Station, Crime
Nos.166/2024, 174/2024, 175/2024, 183/2024,
179/2024, 177/2024, 186/2024, 180/2024, 185/2024,
188/2024 & 189/2024 of Koothattukulam Police Station,

Central Police Station, Crime No.455/2024 of
Muvattupuzha Police Station, Crime No.535/2024 of
Thoppumpady Police Station, Crime No.188/2024 of
Kuravilangadu Police Station and Crime No.433/2024 of
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
Ernakulam South Police Station. Different cases are
registered against the petitioners in these cases mainly
alleging offences punishable under Sections 420 IPC.
3. The prosecution case in brief is as follows:
The petitioners being the Chairman and Managing
Director of Nedumpilli Finance, with the intention to cheat
and to make unlawful gain from the defacto complainants
in these cases, received huge amount as deposit for a
period of 5 years and cheated the defacto complainants
without returning the deposit amount and its interest.
Hence it is alleged that the accused committed the afore
said offences.
4. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and
the learned Public Prosecutor.
5. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted
that the petitioners' company is a non-banking financial
company (NBFC) namely Nedumpilli Finance Company
Limited, incorporated on 30.12.1996 as evident by
Annexure A2. It is submitted that the company is having
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
validly registered license and is working under the
supervision of the RBI. It is also submitted that, as per
the license conditions, regulations and rules issued by the
RBI in respect of working of NBFC's, the company is
permitted to collect funds, permit investments from the
public by way of financial instruments like Debentures,
Preference Shares and Subordinate debt. The petitioners
admit the deposits made by the defacto complainants in
almost all the cases. It is also submitted that the
petitioners paid a prominent amount as interest till July
2023. According to the petitioners, due to an audit
finding report by the RBI, the RBI cancelled the
company's certificate of registration as a Non-Banking
Financial Institution as per an order dated 17.11.2022.
Annexure A3 is the copy of the letter dated 22.11.2022
issued by the RBI cancelling the certificate of registration
of the petitioners' company. Challenging the order of the
RBI, it is submitted that the petitioners preferred a Writ
petition before this Court and this Court was pleased to
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
pass an interim order stating that, no coercive steps shall
be taken against the petitioners. Annexure A4 is the
order. It is also submitted that the petitioners preferred
an appeal before the Appellate Authority, Ministry of
Finance, Government of India and the same was
dismissed by the Appellate Authority upholding the
finding of the RBI. Challenging the above order, the
petitioners filed W.P.(C)No.23932/2023 before this Court
and the order passed by the Appellate Authority is stayed
as evident by Annexure A5 order is the submission. It is
submitted that the cancellation of the certificate of
registration by the RBI caused a huge impact on the
financial management of the company. It is submitted
that, even after that the petitioners paid interest on the
deposit to the customers till July, 2023. The petitioners
were arrested on 08.03.2024 and they were in custody
from that day onwards. It is submitted that, one of the
petitioner is aged 73 years and he is suffering from
different ailments.
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
6. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the Bail
application and submitted that the petitioners cheated
several persons and this Court may not release them on
bail.
7. This Court considered the contentions of the
petitioners and the Public Prosecutor. It is true that there
are several victims in these cases. The petitioners admit
that they have collected fund from the defacto
complainants in these cases and because of the financial
problem, the same was not disbursed. This Court
perused the orders passed by this Court in the Writ
petitions also. The petitioners submitted that they are
trying to settle the entire issue with the defacto
complainants in these cases. If that be the case, the
continued detention of the petitioners may not help
anybody. There can be a direction to the petitioners to
surrender their passport, if any, before the court below
and the petitioners can be released on bail after imposing
stringent conditions.
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
8. Moreover, it is a well accepted principle that
the bail is the rule and the jail is the exception. The
Hon'ble Supreme Court in Chidambaram. P v
Directorate of Enforcement (2019 (16) SCALE 870),
after considering all the earlier judgments, observed that,
the basic jurisprudence relating to bail remains the same
inasmuch as the grant of bail is the rule and refusal is the
exception so as to ensure that the accused has the
opportunity of securing fair trial.
9. Considering the dictum laid down in the above
decision and considering the facts and circumstances of
this case, these Bail Applications are allowed with the
following directions:
1. Petitioners shall be released on bail on
executing a bond for Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty
Thousand only) each with two solvent sureties
each for the like sum to the satisfaction of the
jurisdictional Court.
2. Petitioners shall appear before the
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
Investigating Officer for interrogation as and when
required. The petitioners shall co-operate with the
investigation and 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 them from disclosing such facts to the
Court or to any police officer.
3. Petitioners shall not leave India without
permission of the jurisdictional Court.
4. Petitioners shall not commit an offence
similar to the offence of which they are accused, or
suspected, of the commission of which they are
suspected.
5. Petitioners shall appear before the
investigating officer on all Mondays till final report
is filed.
6. Petitioners shall surrender their passport
before the Jurisdictional court. If there is no
passport, they will file an affidavit to that effect
B.A.Nos.3251 of 2024 & connected cases
before the Jurisdictional court.
7. If any of the above conditions are violated
by the petitioners, the jurisdictional Court can
cancel the bail in accordance to law, even though
the bail is granted by this Court.
