By Public Prosecutor, High Court of Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad .. Respondent THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY Criminal Petition No.9902 of 2010 ORDER:- This is an application filed by the petitioner seeking modification of the conditions imposed on him by the III-Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, as per orders in Crl.M.P.No.2940/2010. The petitioner herein along with two others moved the application before the III-Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, under Section 438 Cr.P.C. seeking anticipatory bail in Crime No.483/2010 of WPS, CCS, DD, Hyderabad. The learned III- Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, granted anticipatory bail to the petitioner herein while rejecting the similar relief to the other accused subject to certain conditions. Para 7 of the Order passed by the III-Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, on 29-9-2010 reads as hereunder:- “In the result, the Crl.M.P.No.3004/2010 is dismissed. Crl.M.P.No.2940/2010 regarding A.2 and A.3 is dismissed. Regarding A.4, the petition is allowed and A.4 is granted anticipatory bail and directed to surrender before the lower Court within one week from to-day and on his surrender, on the bail application he shall be released on bail on his furnishing personal bond for a sum of Rs.30,000/- (Rs. Thirty thousands only) with two sureties for a like sum to the satisfaction of the XIII-Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, and on further condition that he shall attend the concerned Police Station on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday between 12.00 noon to 3.00 p.m., and assist the investigation for a period of (2) two months or till filing of the charge-sheet, whichever is earlier and he shall not tamper with the evidence.” Hence, the application for modification of the conditions. Heard Sri C.Padmanabha Reddy, learned senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent-State. Learned senior Counsel submits that the petitioner is only an employee in M/s.Lattitudes Health (P) Ltd., and the conditions imposed on him are onerous and therefore they are required to be modified. The application moved by A.1 to A.3 seeking anticipatory bail is being allowed on this day, vide separate order. The conditions imposed on A.1 to A.3 read as hereunder:- “The petitioners are directed to surrender themselves before the Station House Officer, WPS, CCS, DD, Hyderabad, within a period of two weeks, and on such surrender, they shall be released on bail on their executing personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rs.Ten thousand only) each with two sureties for a like sum each to the satisfaction of the same Station House Officer, and on further condition that the petitioners shall appear before the Station House Officer, WPS, CCS, DD, Hyderabad, once in a week i.e., on every Saturday in between 7.00 A.M., and 11.00 A.M., for a period of four weeks or till filing of the charge-sheet, whichever is earlier.” Since the petitioner is stated to be only an employee, I deem it appropriate to modify the conditions imposed on him by the III- Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, while granting anticipatory bail. The modified conditions shall read as hereunder:- “The petitioner shall surrender himself before the Station House Officer, WPS, CCS, DD, Hyderabad, within a period of two weeks from today, and on such surrender, he shall be released on bail on his executing personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand only) with two sureties for a like sum each to the satisfaction of the same Station House Officer, and on further condition that the petitioner shall appear before the WPS, CCS, DD, Hyderabad, once in a week i.e., on every Saturday in between 7.00 A.M., and 11.00 A.M., for a period of four weeks or till filing of the charge-sheet, whichever is earlier.” Accordingly, the conditions imposed by the III-Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, in Crl.M.P.No.2940/2010 are hereby modified. The Criminal Petition is accordingly disposed of. _________________________ B.Seshasayana Reddy, J 6th October, 2010 smr
