M.S.BREEZE THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/02/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: sts V. RAMKUMAR, J. .................................................... Bail Application No.1060 of 2011 ..................................................... Dated this the 17th day of February, 2011. ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos. 1 and 3 in Crime No.58 of 2011 of Bakel Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 153A, 324 and 308 r/w Section 34 I.P.C., seek their enlargement on bail. The petitioners were arrested on 24.01.2011 and 25.01.2011 respectively. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the first petitioner who is A1 is involved in four other crimes and the 2nd petitioner who is A3 is involved in three other crimes. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners, the relative conduct of the parties, the extent of the injury sustained, 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 B.A. No. 1060 of 2011 2 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. rv
