BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.M.S.BREEZE THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/02/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: svs V.RAMKUMAR, J. --------------------------------------------------- Bail Application No.1210 of 2011 ----------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd day of February, 2011 ORDER The petitioners, who are accused Nos.1 & 2 in Crime No.2300 of 2010 of Kalamassery Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 392 read with Section 34 I.P.C., seek their enlargement on bail. The petitioners were arrested on 17/12/2010. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the petitioners are involved in nine other cases and their main target is old ladies for chain snatching and allied offences. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offence, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners, the relative conduct of the parties, the propensities of the petitioners and the other facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that if the petitioners are released on bail, they will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses. There is also the likelihood of the petitioners making themselves scarce and fleeing from Bail Appln.No.1210/2011 : 2 : justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage. 4. The Magistrate concerned shall expedite the trial of the case in which the petitioners are accused. This petition is accordingly dismissed. Dated this the 22nd day of February, 2011. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE skj
