R1 & R2 BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI. C.S. HRITHWIK THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/12/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Mn V.RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------------------------- Bail Application No.7713 of 2010 ------------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 08th day of December, 2010 ORDER The petitioner, who is accused No.1 in Crime No.1717 of 2010 of Karunagappally Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 379 read with Section 34 I.P.C., seeks his enlargement on bail. The petitioner was arrested on 02/11/2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application submitting inter alia that the petitioner is involved in 36 theft cases and the subject matter in all those cases is motor cycle. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offence, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the parties, the extent of the injury sustained, the propensities of the petitioner and the other facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that if the petitioner is released on bail, he will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses. There is also the Bail Appln.No.7713/2010 : 2 : 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
