PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.C.S.HRITHWIK THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 08/04/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V.RAMKUMAR, J. --------------------------------- Bail Application No.2759 of 2011 ---------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of April, 2011 ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos.1 & 2 in Crime No.318 of 2011 of Irinjalakuda Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 341, 326, 302, 201 & 120(b) read with Section 34 I.P.C., seek their enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 27/02/2011. The petitioners were arrested on 02/03/2011. 2. The application was opposed on behalf of the prosecution. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners, the relative conduct of the parties, the propensities of the petitioners, the sentiments of the near relatives of the victim and the other facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that if the petitioners are released on bail, they will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses. There is also the likelihood of the petitioners making themselves scarce and fleeing from justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage. This petition is accordingly dismissed. Dated this the 8th day of April, 2011. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. skj
