ORDER

Petition under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. 2.

Petitioners are accused in Crime No.1058 of 2015 of Payyannur Police Station registered for an offence punishable under Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code.

3.

The defacto complainant filed a complaint before the Magistrate having jurisdiction which was forwarded for investigation. First petitioner is the husband of the defacto complainant. Petitioners 2 and 3 are the in-laws of the defacto complainant. Fourth petitioner is the brotherin-law. Fifth petitioner is the wife of fourth petitioner and sixth petitioner is the sister of second petitioner. Allegation against the petitioners is that they harassed the defacto complainant.

After hearing the learned counsel on both sides, I am of the view that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is not necessary. Hence the following order is passed:

i.

Petitioners shall surrender before the investigating officer within a period of two weeks and submit themselves for interrogation. Thereafter each one of them shall execute a bond for

BA No.5797/2015 `25,000/- (Rupees twentyfive thousand only) with two solvent sureties each for the like sum to the satisfaction of the investigating officer. In that event, they shall be released on bail in Crime No.1058 of 2015 of Payyannur Police Station.

ii.

The sureties shall produce documents to establish their identity and solvency.

iii.

Petitioners shall appear before the Investigating Officer as and when directed in writing and co-operate with the investigation in the matter.

iv.

They shall not influence or intimidate the witnesses. In case of violation of any of the above conditions, the officer concerned is free to arrest the petitioners as if no order is passed. A. HARIPRASAD, JUDGE.
