BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI. M.S.BREEZE THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 05/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: SVS/ V. RAMKUMAR, J. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Bail Application No.6032 of 2010 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Dated: 5th day of October, 2010 ORDER Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.68/2009 of Varkala Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 306 IPC, seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 21.9.2009. The petitioner surrendered before the Court on 6.9.2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contenting inter-alia that the deceased Apsara, who was a nursing student was agreed to be married by the petitioner who was also a nursing student, but she was subsequently cheated by the petitioner resulting in her committing suicide by hanging in the hostel. 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, the sentiments of the near relatives of the victim 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) dmb
