4.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that there are very many legal infirmities in the conviction recorded by the Trial Court and by the Appellate Court and they are required to be revised. There is prima facie case in favour of the petitioner. 5.I have anxiously considered the submissions, perused the averments in the bail petition, impugned Judgment of the Courts below. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

6.Perusing the impugned judgments and the materials on record, I am of the view that certain eminently arguable points are involved in this criminal revision. They are required to be examined in detail in the main criminal revision. It will take some time for the disposal of this criminal revision. I see prima facie case. I am inclined to grant revision bail to the petitioner.

8. In view of the foregoings, ordered as under: (i) Revision bail granted.

(ii) Sentence of imprisonment ordered by the Trial Court as confirmed by the Appellate Court alone is suspended. (iii)There shall be two sureties, they and the petitioner shall execute a bond for Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only) each to the satisfaction of the learned learned Judicial Magistrate, Manapparai, Trichy District.
