4. Per contra, the learned counsel for the intervenor vehemently opposed for granting anticipatory bail to the petitioners contending that the first accused was working as Inspector of Police and with the help of the second accused, on 25.04.2015, kidnapped the de-facto complainant, with a view to screen the evidence. It is further contended that the first accused was granted anticipatory bail on condition that he should not interfere with the investigation and tamper the witnesses, however the first accused violated the condition and therefore, he is not entitled for anticipatory bail.

5. Heard the learned Government Advocate (Crl.side).

6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners with certain conditions. Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of their arrest or on their appearance before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.IV, Trichy and on their executing a bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned and on further condition that the petitioners shall reside at Vilupuram and report before the Vilupuram Town Police Station daily twice at 10.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m. until further orders.
