BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI. C.S. HRITHWIK THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/01/2011,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss V. RAMKUMAR, J. .................................................... Bail Application No. 73 of 2011 ..................................................... Dated this the 10th day of January, 2011. ORDER Petitioner, who is the 8th accused in Crime No.512 of 2010 of Peramangalam Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 324, 326 and 307 read with Section 120 (B) I.P.C., seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 14.07.2010. The petitioner was arrested on 31.12.2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the de facto complainant, the injured sustained fracture of skull and fracture on both legs and right hand. A2 was using a sword and A1, A3 and A5 to 7 used iron rods. The petitioner is the person who hatched the criminal conspiracy and engaged the other accused persons. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, 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, 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 B.A. No. 73/2011 : 2: 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. rv
