One of the conditions was that petitioner shall surrender his passport. Petitioner surrendered his passport. He filed Crl.M.P.1066/2010 before the learned Sessions Judge to lift the said condition. By Annexure-A2 order the petition was dismissed. This petition is filed under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure to get the passport released. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor were heard. Crmc 3921/10 2 3. Argument of the learned counsel is that he is a driver and unless he gets the passport, he cannot work abroad and there is an offer for employment and likelihood of getting employment outside India and therefore, passport is to be released. When the petitioner has no case that he got any employment or visa to work abroad, I do not find any necessity to interfere with Annexure-A1 order. If the petitioner obtains any employment and visa he is at liberty to apply for release of that passport at that time. Petition is dismissed. M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, JUDGE. uj.
