HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Crl.R.C.No. 1803 of 2010 Date: 06-10-2010 Between: V. Jagadish Petitioner And The State of A.P. Respondent HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Crl.R.C.No. 1803 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner, who is one of the Accused in Crime No.423 of 2010 of IV Town Police Station, Visakhapatnam City, approached the Court below and filed Crl.M.P.No.3520 of 2010 seeking release of his passport as the same was seized by the police during the course of investigation. However, the petition was dismissed by the Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Visakhapatnam, by his order, dated 29- 09-2010. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred the present Revision Case. The learned counsel for the petitioner, during the course of arguments, submitted that the petitioner is working in PPL Shipyard at Singapore and he has to report before the Human Resource Director of the said Company before 12-10-2010 and if he fails to report before the said authority, he looses his job. In the light of the said submission, this Court looked into the letter, dated 02-10-2010, which is from the PPL Shipyard, Tuas creasent, Singapore and addressed to the petitioner herein. From the above, it appears that the petitioner is working at Singapore and there is every likelihood of his loosing the job if he fails to report before the said authority on or before 12-10-2010. In these circumstances, this Court is of the view that the passport of the petitioner may be released in his favour. But, however, to ensure that the petitioner appears before the concerned police station, this Court is of the view that some condition shall be imposed. Accordingly, the Criminal Revision Case is allowed at the stage of admission. The Station House Officer, IV Town Police Station, Visakhapatnam City, is directed to release the passport of the petitioner in his favour, however, on condition of his furnishing bank guarantee in a sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh Only). Further the petitioner shall report before the police once in two months and cooperate with the investigation. ________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J Date: 06-10-2010 YCR
