PETITIONERS / ACCUSED NOS.1 TO 2 Vs STATE REP. BY THE INSPECTOR OF POLICE, PAVOORCHATRAM POLICE STATION, PAVOORCHATRAM, TIRUNELVELI DISTRICT.

(CRIME NO.238/2019) ... RESPONDENT / COMPLAINANT For Petitioner : MR.C.SUSI KUMAR Advocate For Respondent : Mrs.M.ANANTHA DEVI, Government Advocate (Crl.Side) PETITION FOR ANTICIPATORY BAIL Under Sec. 438 Cr.P.C. ORDER : The Court Made the following order :- The petitioners, who apprehend arrest at the hands of the respondent police for the offences punishable under Sections 294(b), 323,324 and 506(ii) of IPC, seek anticipatory bail.

2. Heard both sides.

3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners has submitted that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in the above case. He further submitted that the injured person has sustained only simple injuries and he was already discharged from the hospital and hence, he prayed to grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4.The learned Government Advocate(Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent has submitted that due to property dispute, the petitioners abused the defacto complainant and threatened him dire consequences. Hence she opposed for granting anticipatory bail to the petitioner. However she fairly conceded that the injured person has sustained simple injuries and he was discharged from the hospital.

5.Taking into consideration the fact that the injured person sustained only simple injuries and also discharged from the hospital, this Court is inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner with certain conditions.

6. Accordingly, the petitioners are ordered to be released on bail in the event of arrest or on their appearance, within a period of fifteen days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, before the learned Judicial Magistrate, Tenkasi, Tirunelveli District on condition that the petitioners shall execute 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 respondent Police or to the Police Officer, who intends to arrest or to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned and on further condition that:

(i) If the petitioners fail to surrender before the concerned Magistrate within a period of 15 days, this order shall stand automatically cancelled.

(ii) the petitioners shall report before the respondent police daily at 10.30 a.m for a period of three weeks and thereafter, as and when required before the respondent police for interrogation. (iii) the petitioners shall not tamper with evidence or witness either during investigation or trial.

(iv) the petitioners shall not abscond either during investigation or trial.

(v) On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate action against the petitioners in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the petitioners 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]. (vi) If the accused thereafter absconds, a fresh FIR can be registered under Section 229-A IPC.
