S Jayachandran v. The State Rep By Its,

C.V.KARTHIKEYAN,J.

The Petitioner/A3 had already been granted anticipatory bail in Crl.O.P.No.7790 of 2024 by an order dated 28.03.2024. However, the petitioner had not executed the sureties as directed and therefore, the anticipatory bail granted to the petitioner stood lapsed. It is under those circumstances, a fresh application has been filed.

2. It is stated that A1 and A2 had been arrested and granted bail. It is stated that the accused and others were consuming alcohol outside the Tasmac and caused injuries to the defacto complainant. 3.Taking all the factors into consideration, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner subject to the following conditions:

4.Accordingly, the petitioner is ordered to be released on anticipatory bail in the event of arrest or on his appearance, within a

period of fifteen days from the date on which the order copy made ready, before the learned XVIII MM, Saidapet, Chennai-15 on condition that the petitioner shall execute a bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) with two sureties for a like sum to the satisfaction of the respondent police or the police officer who intends to arrest or to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned, failing which, the petition for anticipatory bail shall stand dismissed and on further condition that:

[a] the petitioner and the sureties shall affix their photographs and Left Thumb Impression in the surety bond and the Magistrate may obtain a copy of their Aadhar card or Bank pass Book to ensure their identity.

[b] the petitioner shall report before the respondent police everyday at 10.30 a.m., until further orders. [c] the petitioner shall not tamper with evidence or witness either during investigation or trial.

[d] the petitioner shall not abscond either during investigation or trial.

[e] On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate action against the

petitioner in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the petitioner released on bail by the learned Magistrate/Trial Court himself as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.K.Shaji vs. State of Kerala [(2005)AIR SCW 5560].

[f] If the accused thereafter absconds, a fresh FIR can be registered under Section 229A IPC.
