O R D E R This petition is for bail. 2. The alleged offence is under Section 332 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code. According to prosecution, on 15.4.2010, at about 11.30 p.m., petitioner(third accused), along with others, in furtherance of common intention caused obstruction to the discharge of official duty by the Sub Inspector of Police and other police officials at a temple premises, when they tried to prevent some untoward incident. When a Ganamela was going on, the unruly mob was creating trouble in the premises and hence the police intervened. 3. Learned counsel for petitioner submitted that petitioner was called to the Police Station on 15.4.2010 in the morning itself and he has not gone to the temple premises on that day. This is a false case, it is submitted. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that petitioner is in custody for the past 54 days and taking into consideration the stage of investigation, this petition is not opposed, but stringent conditions may be imposed. It is also pointed out that petitioner is involved in two other cases. According to him, BA NO. 3255/10 2 petitioner was arrested only on 16.4.2010 and he was not taken into custody, as alleged. 5.
