Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent- State. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the condition imposed on the petitioners with regard to execution of the personal bond for Rs.1,00,000/- each with two sureties is onerous and the same is required to be relaxed. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent-State submits that the condition has been imposed by the II Additional Sessions Judge, Nalgonda at Suryapet, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances and nature of the gravity of the offence and therefore, the condition is not required to be modified. The petitioners are accused of luring the innocent girls for prostitution. They approached the II Additional Sessions Judge, Nalgonda at Suryapet for grant of bail by filing Crl.M.P.No.37 of 2011. The learned Additional Sessions Judge allowed the application filed by the petitioners and granted bail on certain conditions by order dated 19-01-2011. Para 7 of the order passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge reads as hereunder:- “In the result, the petition is allowed. The petitioners/Accused Nos.30, 33, 34, 40, 43, 47 and 49 shall be enlarged on bail on executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees one lakh only) each with two sureties in a like sum to the satisfaction of Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Kodad and on further condition that hey shall attend before the S.H.O., Kodad (Town) P.S twice I a week i.e., on every Tuesday and Friday in between 10.00 a.m and 3.00 p.m till the charge sheet is filed and they shall also co-operative with the investigating agency and they shall not tamper the evidence and threaten the witnesses.” It is contended by the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners that the petitioners are not able to secure sureties worth of Rs.1,00,000/- and therefore, they are not able to avail the benefit of the bail granted by the Additional Sessions Judge. Having considered the facts and circumstances, I am of the view that the condition imposed on the petitioners with regard to their executing personal bond for Rs.1,00,000/- with two sureties appears to be onerous. Accordingly, the condition imposed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge in Crl.M.P.No.37 of 2011 is hereby modified and the petitioners shall be released on bail on executing personal bond for Rs.10,000/- with two local sureties each for a likesum to the satisfaction of the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Kodad and on further condition that they shall appear before the S.H.O., Kodad (Town) P.S, once in a week i.e., on every Saturday between 10.00 a.m., and 3.00 p.m till filing of the charge sheet and that they shall co-operate with the investigating agency. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. ________________________ B.SESHASAYANA REDDY, J 31st January, 2011 VJL/SMR
