PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.K.S.SIVAKUMAR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 02/04/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. ========================= Bail Application No. 1655 of 2009 ============================ Dated, this the 2nd day of April, 2009 ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos.1 & 3 in Crime No.721 of 2008 of Pudukkad Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143,147,148,323,341 & 427 read with 149 IPC seek their enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 11.12.2008. The petitioners surrendered on 19.3.2009. 2. The application was opposed on behalf of the prosecution. 3. Having regard to the nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners, the relative conduct of the parties, the nature of the legal injury sustained and the other facts and circumstances of the case, 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. V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) sj
