BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SHRI.K.S.SIVAKUMAR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 09/07/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K.HEMA, J. ----------------------------------------- B.A.No. 4363 of 2008 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 9th July, 2008 O R D E R This petition is for bail. 2. The alleged offences are under Sections 143, 147, 148, 149, 427 and 309 of Indian Penal Code. Petitioners are accused 1 and 2 in the crime. 3. This petition is opposed. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that the co-accused are to be identified and in case the petitioners are released on bail, it will adversely affect the investigation. They were arrested only on 24.6.2008. The investigation is only at the initial stage. Learned counsel for petitioners submitted that the other accused are not even naned in the First Information Report and hence, the petitioners' detention may not be required for identifying them. 4. On hearing both sides, I am satisfied that granting of bail to the petitioners at this stage is likely to affect the investigation adversely. Hence, this petition is dismissed. K.HEMA, JUDGE vgs.
