AB 329/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE K. MERUNO Heard Mr. S.M. Abdullah, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner. Also heard Mr. B.S. Sinha, learned Addl. P.P. for the State. By this application u/s. 438 Cr.P.C. the petitioner is praying for pre-a rrest bail in connection with Silchar P.S. Case No. 2050/2010 u/s. 420 IPC R/W S ection 16 of Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954. The main ground stated i n this application is that the investigating agency has utterly violated the Pre vention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954. Fairly enough the learned Addl. P.P. als o submits that the articles have been seized and there is no further requirement for any custodial interrogation of the petitioner as seized materials will scie ntifically prove whether the petitioner is involved in the adulteration or not. Considering all aspect of the matter and on perusal of the C.D. which ha s been produced by the learned Addl. P.P., I am of the considered view that the provision of section 438 Cr.P.C. can be extended to the petitioner. In view of the above, it is directed that in the event of arrest of the accused petitioner in connection with the above case he shall be released on executing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- with one local surety of the like amount subject to satisf action of the Investigating Agency on condition that the petitioner shall make himself available before the Investigating Agency as and when required and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the learned CJM, at Cachar without express permis sion of the Court. With the above direction this bail application is disposed of.
