The petitioner is accused No.1 in Crime No.611 of 2011 of Paravur Police Station, Kollam. 2. The offences alleged against the petitioner are under Sections 143, 147, 148, 323, 326 and 308 read with Section 149 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. The prosecution case is that on 8.5.2011, at 2 P.M., the accused persons attacked the de facto complainant with dangerous weapons like sword and caused grievous injuries to him. The de facto complainant was attacked by the accused on the apprehension that the de facto complainant was giving information to the police regarding the illegal transportation of sand by some of the accused. The learned Public Prosecutor submitted that the petitioner is involved in Crime Nos.904 of BA 5424/2011 2 2010, 905 of 2010, 911 of 2010, 1137 of 2010, 1354 of 2010 and 1214 of 2010. The learned Public Prosecutor submitted that if the petitioner is released on bail, his activities would cause great prejudice to the people of the locality. It is submitted that the petitioner is involved in several cases of very serious nature. 4. Taking into account the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not think it proper to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. If the petitioner is released on bail, it is most likely that he may indulge in similar criminal activities to the detriment of the general public. The Bail Application is accordingly dismissed.
