For Petitioner :
Mr.G.Padmanaban [in Crl.O.Ps.] for M/s.G.Nirmal Krishnan For Respondent :
Mr.B.Ramesh Babu [in Crl.O.Ps.] Government Advocate (crl.side) * * * * *
C O M M O N O R D E R The petitioner [in Crl.O.P.Nos.28604, 28612 & 28613 of 2017] was granted bail by the learned Judicial Magistrate, Sirkazhi in Crime Nos.296, 297 and 298 of 2017 respectively pending on the file of Sirkazhi Police Station, subject to the condition that he should appear before the respondent police daily at 10.30a.m. for a period of 30 days.
2. The petitioner [in Crl.O.P.Nos.28603, 28609 & 28611 of 2017] was granted bail by the learned Judicial Magistrate No.I, Nagapattinam in Crime Nos.196, 145 and 223 of 2017 respectively pending on the file of Velankanni Police Station, subject to the condition that he should appear before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.I, Nagapattinam daily at 10.00a.m. for a period of 30 days.
3. The petitioner [in Crl.O.P.Nos.28602, 28605 to 28608 of 2017] was granted bail by the learned Judicial Magistrate No.I, Mayiladuthurai in Crime Nos.457, 458, 459, 460 and 461 of 2017 respectively pending on the file of Mayiladuthurai Police Station, subject to the condition that he should appear before the respondent police daily at 10.00a.m. for a period of 30 days.
4. The petitioner [in Crl.O.P.No.28610 of 2017] was granted bail by the learned District and Sessions Judge, Nagapattinam in Crime No.289 of 2017 pending on the file of Thittacherry Police Station, subject to the condition that he should appear before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Nagapattinam daily at 10.00a.m. until further orders. Aggrieved by the orders of the said conditions, the present petitions had been filed to modify the same.
5. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that in view of the conditions directing the petitioner to appear before several Courts and Police Stations, he is unable to comply with the conditions simultaneously and hence, he pleaded for modification of the said conditions, so as to enable the petitioner to comply with any one of the above mentioned conditions.
6. Heard the learned Government Advocate [Criminal Side] appearing for the respondent.
7. I have perused the orders of the Trial Court. It appears from the records that the learned Sessions Judge directed the petitioner to appear before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Nagapattinam daily at 10.00a.m. until further orders in a case under Section 307 of IPC. Having regard to the difficulties expressed by the petitioner and taking note of the fact that the Trial Court has imposed other conditions to ensure the petitioner's presence at the trial, I am inclined to modify the conditions. Accordingly, the conditions imposed by the learned District and Sessions Judge, Nagapattinam, Judicial Magistrate, Sirkazhi, Judicial Magistrate No.I, Nagapattinam and Judicial Magistrate No.I, Mayiladuthurai, are modified to the effect that "the petitioner shall report before the Mayiladuthurai Police Station, daily at 10.30a.m. for a period of two months from the date of his release in all cases". The other conditions shall remain unaltered.
8. With this direction, these Criminal Original Petitions are disposed of.
