Learned Public Prosecutor on instructions submitted that the petitioner has not been arraigned as an accused in the above case and that the Police are still making enquiries as to the persons other than accused 1 and 2 who were in the company of accused 1 and 2 when the defacto complainant was attacked on 4.11.2006. This will indicate that the apprehension entertained by the petitioner is well founded. Accordingly, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. A direction is therefore issued to the Investigating Officer to release the petitioner on bail for a period of one month in the event of his arraignment as an accused or arrest in connection with the above crime, on the petitioner executing a bond for Rs.10,000/- with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the said officer and subject to the following conditions: B.A.NO.6998/06 Page numbers 1. Petitioner shall report before the Investigating Officer between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. on all Wednesdays. 2. The petitioner shall make himself available for interrogation as and when required by the Investigating Officer. 3. The petitioner shall not influence or intimidate the prosecution witnesses nor shall he attempt to tamper with the evidence for the prosecution. 4. Petitioner shall not commit any offence while on bail. 5. Petitioner shall surrender before the Magistrate concerned and seek regular bail in the meanwhile. If the petitioner commits breach of any of the above conditions, the bail granted to him shall be liable to be cancelled. This application is allowed as above. V.RAMKUMAR,JUDGE. dsn
