IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE P.S.GOPINATHAN FRIDAY, THE 16TH DECEMBER 2011 / 25TH AGRAHAYANA 1933 Bail Appl..No. 10110 of 2011() ------------------------------ C.R.No.154/2011 OF ADOOR EXCISE RANGE PETITIONER/ACCUSED : ----------------------- SABU, BIJU BHAVANAM, THOTTUVA MURI, PALLICKAL VILLAGE, ADOOR TALUK. BY ADV. SRI.A.C.DEVY RESPONDENT: COMPLAINANT -------------------------- STATE OF KERALA, REP. BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR, HIGH COURT OF KERALA, ERNAKULAM. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.N.SURESH THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/12/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: P.S.GOPINATHAN, J. --------------------------------------------- Bail Appln.No.10110 of 2011 ---------------------------------------------- Dated this the 16th day of December, 2011 ORDER Petitioner, who is alleged to be an accused in C.R.No.154 of 2011 of Adoor Excise Range, seeks an order directing the respondent to release the petitioner on bail in the event of arrest with a plea that he is falsely implicated. 2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader who had taken me through the First Information Statement, it is seen that though the Excise Party could recover three bottles of liquor, the petitioner and others allegedly involved in the sale took to their heels and therefore could not be arrested. The case was registered against the petitioner on the basis of an alleged statement given by some persons. The name of the person, who gave the statement, is not stated in the case diary. No statement of the witness is also recorded. In the above circumstances, I find that false implication cannot be ruled out. Therefore, this petition is disposed of with direction to the petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer, who after interrogation, shall release the Bail Appln.No.10110/2011 : 2 : petitioner on bail on his executing bond for `15,000/- (Rupees Fifteen thousand only) with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the Investigating Officer on condition that the petitioner shall report before the Investigating Officer as and when called upon.
