SRI.N.SHANOJ RESPONDENT(S): --------------- STATE OF KEKRALA, REPRESENTED BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR, HIGH COURT OF KEKRAL, ERNAKULAM. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.M.S.BREEZE. THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 22/09/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V.RAMKUMAR, J. ---------------------------------------------- Bail Application No.5668 of 2010 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 22nd day of September, 2010 ORDER The petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.552/2010 of Iritty Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 20(b)(ii)(B) of the N.D.P.S.Act, seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 15/8/2010. The petitioner was arrested on 15/8/2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application submitting inter alia that the petitioner involved in another crime for the same offence. 3. Having regard to the nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the parties, the nature of the injury sustained and the other facts and circumstances of the case, if the petitioner is released on bail, he will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses. There is also the likelihood of the petitioner making himself scarce and fleeing from justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. This petition is accordingly dismissed. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE skj
