RAMKUMAR, J. .................................................... Bail Application No. 10323 of 2011 ..................................................... Dated: 19th December, 2011 ORDER Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No. 1322 of 2011 of Kollam-East Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 367, 354 and 377 I.P.C., seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 3-3-2011. The petitioner was arrested on 14-11-2011 2. The application was opposed on behalf of the prosecution. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the parties, the extent of the injury sustained, the propensities of the petitioner, the sentiments of the near relatives of the victim 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 19th day of December, 2011. Sd/-V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) ani/ /true copy/ P.S. to Judge
