PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.M.S.BREEZ THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/01/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K.HEMA, J. ------------------------------ B.A. No.7806 OF 2008 ------------------------------ Dated this the 6th day of January, 2009 O R D E R This petition is for bail. 2. The alleged offence is under Section 392 of I.P.C. According to prosecution, petitioners (accused nos.1 and 3) along with second accused snatched away the gold chain from the neck of the defacto complainant and also a gold bangle and 2 rings showing a knife on her neck and intimidating her in June, 2008. 3. Petitioners are in custody from 01.11.2008 onwards. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that petitioners involved in 3 other cases also and hence stringent conditions may be imposed while granting bail, but he has no objection in granting bail to petitioners. Second accused is not arrested so far. On hearing both sides, I am satisfied that bail can be granted to petitioners, but stringent conditions have to be imposed. Hence, the following order is passed : B.A.No.7806 of 2008 2 Petitioners shall be released on bail on their executing bond for Rs.50,000/- each with two solvent sureties each for like sum to the satisfaction of the Magistrate court concerned on the following conditions : (i) Petitioners shall report before Investigating Officer on every alternate day between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. until further orders. (ii) Petitioners shall not leave the limits of the police station within which crime is registered except for compliance of any direction, if any, issued by any court. (iii) Petitioners shall not influence or intimidate any witness or commit any offence while on bail and in case of breach of this condition, bail is liable to be cancelled. The petition is allowed.
