The applicant has prayed for bail in C.R. No.I-168 of 2008 of Nallasopara Police Station. The said offence has been registered against the applicant for having allegedly committed an offence under section 457 read with section 380 of IPC. It is on the allegation that on 4th May, 2008 at 11 p.m., the applicant committed lurking house tress pass and theft of Rs.1,600/-. 3. I have perused the statements of complainant - Vinod Pathak and the witnesses Narendrakumar Kashyap and Sanjay Ramji Chaurasia. It appears from their statements that the accused was caught on the stop and was assaulted by all the three witnesses and as a result of which he fail down and became unconscious. While he was unconscious, from his pocket violet was recovered in which Rs.1,600/- were found. From perusal of the statements of all the three witnesses, it appears that they all independently claim this amount to be their own. The applicant is hardly 18 years old boy. Keeping that in view and having considered overall facts and circumstances of the case, I am satisfied that this is a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. Hence the following order : . The applicant to be enlarged on bail in the sum of Rs.10,000/- with one or two sureties in the like amount subject to condition that he shall report to the concerned police station on first and third Saturday between 10.00 a.m. and 11.00 a.m. of every month till the conclusion of trial. . While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case without being influenced by the observations made in this order.
