HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G. KRISHNA MOHAN REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.6053 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed by the petitioner under Section 482 Cr.P.C to relax condition imposed against him by the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Palamaner, in Crl.M.P.No.1893 of 2011 dated 04.07.2011, whereby lorry bearing Registration No.KA 01 AE 2673 was directed to be released to the petitioner for interim custody on condition of his (petitioner) executing a personal bond for Rs.3,00,000/- with two sureties for likesum each, out of which one surety must be a local surety, apart from imposing certain other conditions stated therein. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor representing the respondent- State. It is the contention of learned counsel for the petitioner that it is difficult for the petitioner to secure surety of the area where the concerned court is situated and further it is also difficult for him to bring sureties for Rs.3,00,000/- and, in fact, the vehicle in question is of 2004 model and its price is less and, hence, the condition with regards to securing local surety may be relaxed. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to change the order of securing one surety of Tamil Nadu and one security of the local surety, but on the other land I am inclined to reduce the bond amount to Rs.1,00,000/-. The other conditions stipulated in the order shall remain unaltered. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is ordered. __________________________________ JUSTICE G.KRISHNA MOHAN REDDY Dt.22.07.2011 v v HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.
