HRITHWIK, PUBLIC PROSECUTOR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 03/06/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. .................................................... Bail Application No. 4177 of 2011 ..................................................... Dated this the 3rd day of June, 2011. ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos.6 to 9 in Crime No.116 of 2011 of Nadapuram Police Station, Kozhikode for offences punishable under Sections 4 and 5 of the Explosive Substance Act, seek their enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place on 26.02.2011. Petitioners 6 to 8 were arrested on 26.04.2011 and the 9th petitioner was arrested on 21.03.2011. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that on 26.02.2011 the accused persons including A1 to A9 attempted to make country bombs in a vacant land at a place called Narikkatteri within the limits of Nadapuram Police Station and at about 9.30 p.m, the bombs exploded and five persons (A1 to A5) died and A6 to A8 sustained injuries and others escaped. 3. Having regard to the gravity of the offences, nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners, the relative conduct of the parties, the extent of the injury sustained, the propensities of the petitioners, the sentiments of the near relatives of the victim and the other facts and circumstances of B.A. No. 4177/2011 2 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 justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage. This petition is accordingly dismissed. sd/- V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv //True Copy// P.A to Judge.
