MANU THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 09/03/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: sts V. RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------------------- Bail Appln.No.1641 of 2011 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 9th day of March, 2011 ORDER Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.41 of 2011 of Kovalam Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 393 I.P.C., seeks his enlargement on bail. The petitioner was arrested on 15/01/2011. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the petitioner is involved in four other robbery cases. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offence, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the propensities of the petitioner and the other facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that if the petitioner is released on bail, he will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses. There is also the likelihood of the petitioner making himself scarce and fleeing from justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. This petition is accordingly dismissed. Dated this the 9th day of March, 2011. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. skj
