THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03/05/2011,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: prv. V.RAMKUMAR, J. --------------------------------------------------- Bail Application No.3046 of 2011 ----------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd day of May, 2011 ORDER Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.578 of 2011 of Nedumangad Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 366-A, 342, 450 & 376 of I.P.C., seeks his enlargement on bail. The petitioner was arrested on 02/04/2011. 2. The application was opposed on behalf of the prosecution. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the extent of the injury sustained, the propensities of the petitioner, 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 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. Dated this the 3rd day of May, 2011. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. skj
