PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI. HRITHWIK THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 13/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. .................................................... Bail Application No. 6305 of 2010 ..................................................... Dated: 13th October, 2010 ORDER Petitioner who is the sole accused in Crime No. 2409 of 2010 of Kottarakkara Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 511 of 379 I.P.C. seeks his enlargement on bail. The petitioner was arrested on 27-09-2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that this was an unsuccessful attempt to snatch the chain of a lady at 9.30 a.m. from the K.S.R.T.C. bus stand at Kottarakkara and that the petitioner's contention that he is an employee of Kalluvilakam Agencies near the K.S.R.T.C. bus stand and he has been falsely implicated is not correct. He is a chronic alcoholic who has not reported for duty in the said shop since 30-4-2010. 3. Having regard to the nature of the allegations levelled Bail Application No. 6305 of 2010 -:2:- against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the parties, the nature of the injury sustained , the sentiments of the near relative 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. Sd/- V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) ani. /true copy/ P.S. to Judge
