Udugula Madusudhan Goud v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE C. PRAVEEN KUMAR CRI MI NAL PETI TI ON No.12549_OF 2016 ORDER:

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor.

2.

The present Criminal Petition came to be filed by the petitioner/A.3 under Sections 437 and 439 Cr.P.C., seeking enlargement on bail in connection with Crime No.416 of 2016 of Medipally Police Station, Ranga Reddy District, initially registered for the offence punishable under Section 392 IPC and subsequently altered to Section 395 IPC. 3.

The case of the prosecution is that on 03.07.2016 while the son of the informant was going to Yanam, gave her an amount of Rs.30,00,000/- for safe custody. On the same day, when a friend of her son by name Gopala Krishna (A.1) came to her house, she gave the amount to A.1 asking him to keep the same in the almirah. After keeping the same, he went away by taking her car and returned on 05.07.2016 at about 7:30 P.M., along with Babu @ Chinna (A.2) with three beer bottles and a quarter bottle. They consumed the beer, while she consumed quarter bottle. They left the house at 9:30 P.M. At about 11:00 P.M., two unknown persons entered into the house, tied her hands with a tape and closed her mouth with a plaster. They took her into the house and switched off the lights, took the almirah keys and snatched away gold pusthela tadu, a pair of ear tops, a chain from her neck and the bag

CPK,J CrlP_12549_2016 containing cash about Rs.30,00,000/- and thereafter fled away threatening her with dire consequences. She suspects A.1 and A.2 being responsible for the commission of offence. Basing on these allegations, the present crime came to be registered. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegations levelled against the petitioner are all false and he is falsely implicated in this case. As major part of the investigation is over, seeks bail.

5.

Learned Public Prosecutor opposed the same contending that though several witnesses were examined, Test Identification Parade is not yet conducted and if the petitioner is released on bail at the crucial stage, there is every likelihood of he tampering with the witnesses.

6.

Having regard to the fact that investigation is still pending and since the Test Identification Parade is to be held shortly, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

7.

Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. _______________________ JUSTI CE C. PRAVEEN KUMAR Date:30.08.2016 INL
