RAMKUMAR, J. ============================= Bail Application No.3202 of 2011 ================================ Dated this the 6th day of May, 2011 ORDER Petitioner, who is the 1st accused in Crime No.88/2011 of Thodupuzha Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 20(b)(ii)B and 29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 27.01.2011. The petitioner was arrested on 29.03.2011. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending, inter alia, that the petitioner who was earlier released on bail on 22.03.2011 on specific conditions including one that he shall not leave the limits of Thodupuzha Police Station was found indulging in another NDPS offence at Kanjar beyond the Thodupuzha Police Station limits and his bail was accordingly cancelled on 24.03.2011. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the petitioner, the propensities of the petitioner and the other facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view B.A. No. 3202 of 2011 2 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. V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) sj
