                 Dated this the 13th day of September, 2024


                                     ORDER

Petitioner is an accused in 58 different crimes at different Police

Stations in the State. He alleges that he was arrested in May 2021 initially

and released in August 2021, and again arrested on 25.05.2022 and

released on 01.10.2022. Yet again he was arrested on 29.05.2023 and

released on 29.11.2023. Even thereafter, on the basis of another crime

registered, he was arrested on 16.05.2024, and is under custody even now.

Petitioner contends that all crimes registered against him are based on

similar or identical allegations of non-refund of training fee collected by

him. According to the petitioner, in a similar situation, this Court had given

relief to other accused who had been undergoing long periods of detention

due to their involvement in numerous cases.

2. Sri. Latheesh Sebastian, the learned counsel for the petitioner,

submitted that, as and when petitioner obtains bail in one crime, another

crime would be registered, and the detention is continued. Again when he

gets bail in that crime, another crime would be registered thereafter,

thereby indefinitely continuing his custody.

3. The learned Public Prosecutor upon instructions submitted that

already 58 crimes have been registered and he has been arrested in all the 2024:KER:70308 Crl.M.C.No.6602/2024 & connected cases

cases, and charge sheet has also been submitted in all except four, which

are still under investigation.

4. Since the petitioner has already been in custody for more than

17 months altogether, I am of the view that the interests of the

investigating agency, the complainants and the petitioner ought to be

balanced, and that protection ought to be granted against continued

deprivation of liberty. In the decision in W.P.(Crl.) No.230/2023, this Court

had issued certain directions providing protection for unnecessary arrest

in respect of persons who have undergone long periods of detention, that

too on the basis of allegations which are similar in nature.

5. Accordingly, I am satisfied that petitioner is also entitled to be

given the said benefit having regard to the period of detention already

undergone and the nature of offenes alleged.

6. In the above circumstances the following directions are issued;

i. As the petitioner has undergone detention for more than 17 months on the basis of various crimes registered against him, continued detention would affect his right to life and liberty under Article 21 of the Constitution of India on the basis of new crimes that are registered before he is released.

ii. In all crimes already registered against the petitioner as on this date, his arrest shall be recorded within an outer period of 20 days from today to enable him to apply for bail immediately.

2024:KER:70308 Crl.M.C.No.6602/2024 & connected cases

iii. In all crimes registered hereafter alleging offences and circumstances of a similar nature as those of the crimes already registered, the procedure contemplated under Section 41 A of Cr.P.C. and its corresponding provision in Section 35 of BNSS, subject to the exception carved out under clause (iv) below.

iv. If circumstances exist where the investigating officer requires the arrest of the petitioner in crimes to be registered hereafter, the directions in Arnesh Kumar's case and in Satender Kumar Antils' case, and the provisions of section 41(1) (ii) Cr.P.C or its corresponding provision in Section 35 of BNSS shall scrupulously be complied with. Further, the Magistrate concerned shall scrutinize the need for any detention in such cases with the seriousness it deserves and not in a routine manner

These Crl.M.C's are disposed of with the above directions.
