THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY CRL.P.No. 5962 OF 2009 ORDER The petitioners apprehend arrest in Crime No.119 of 2008 of Shivampet Police Station, registered for the offence under Section 394 I.P.C. A report came to be presented by Bourampeta Krishna on 24- 12-2008 at 1600 hours before the S.H.O. Shivampet alleging inter alia that three unknown persons attacked his driver S. Ashok Potharam on 23-12-2008 at 9-30 hours and committed theft of cash of Rs.2,500/- ,Gold Postala Tadu and ear studs. Basing on the said report a case in Crime No. 119 of 2008 under Section 394 I.P.C. came to be registered. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the Respondent/State. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that police have been visiting their houses and therefore, there is reasonable apprehension in the mind of the petitioners with regard to their arrest in Crime No. 119 of 2008 of Shivampet Police Station. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposed the application on the ground that investigation is pending and if the petitioners are admitted to bail, there is every likelihood of their being interfering with the investigation. As seen from the record, the case is registered against unknown persons. Investigation is going on to nab the real culprits. Mere summoning the petitioners to the police station for interrogation is not sufficient to conclude of their likelihood of being arrested in the crime. Therefore, I do not see any valid ground to admit the petitioners on anticipatory bail at this stage. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed. _______________________________ Justice B.
