SIVAKUMAR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/06/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K. HEMA, J. ------------------------------------------ Bail Appl.No. 3695 of 2008 ------------------------------------------ Dated this the 11th day of June, 2008. ORDER Petition for bail. 2. Petitioner is the 5th accused in a crime registered against him and others for offence under Sections 143, 147, 148, 341, 302 and 149 of IPC. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is in custody from 26.3.2008 onwards. The petitioner has no criminal antecedents, it is submitted. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that the above submission is not correct. Petitioner is involved in another crime also. This case registered in view of a clash between two goonda groups. There is a crime against the petitioner for committing murder of brother-in-law of the 7th accused. The case at hand occurred as a retaliation of that case and in this case also, the involvement of the petitioner is evident. It is submitted that if petitioner is released on bail, it is likely that it will affect the law and order situation. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I find that it is not proper to grant bail to the petitioner. Petition is dismissed. K. HEMA, JUDGE. Krs.
