CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11.08.07, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = Crl.M.C.No.160 of 2008 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 11th day of January, 2008 ORDER The petitioner, who is the 1st accused in Crime No.756 of 2007 of Mathilakam Police Station, for offences punishable under Sections 465, 468, 473 and 420 read with Section 34 IPC, challenges the condition imposed by the Sessions Court, Thrissur in the bail order dated 8.1.08 in Cr.M.C.29/2008, insisting that one of the sureties to the bond for Rs.25,000/- shall produce solvency certificate for the said amount. 2. According to the petitioner, the co-accused in the case was granted bail by this Court in B.A.No.7757 of 2007 without insisting on such solvency certificate. 3. I see some force in the above contention. As per the order dated 19.12.07 in B.A.No.7757/2007, the 2nd accused in the case was granted bail by this Court on his executing a bond for Rs.1 lakh (Rupees one lakh only) with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate. I see no reason Crl.M.C.No.160 of 2008 2 why the petitioner also should not be treated alike. Accordingly, the aforesaid condition in Annexure 2 order dated 8.1.08 in Crl.M.C.No.29/2008 on the file of Sessions Court, Thrissur is deleted. But the amount of the bond to be executed by the petitioner and his sureties shall be Rs.1 lakh (Rupees one lakh only) instead of Rs. 25,000/-. This Criminal Miscellaneous Case is disposed of as above. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE sj
