"that the petitioners shall execute a bond for a sum of Rs.5,000/- with two sureties each for a like sum and further, the petitioners shall appear before the IX Metropolitan Magistrate Court, Saidapet on the dates fixed by the learned Magistrate" The learned counsel for the petitioner would further submit that the same condition may be extended to the petitioner also.

3. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.side) appearing for the respondent police has no serious objection for allowing this petition.

4. Considering the submissions made on either side, it is seen that the petitioner is also one of the accused in Crime No.83 of 2025. The condition imposed on the other co-accused has already been modified. Since the petitioner stands on the same footing as the co-accused, this Court is inclined to modify the condition as per the order passed in Crl.O.P.No.2473 of 2026 dated 04.02.2026.
