The first accused stabbed him with a knife on various parts of his body and when the wife of the deceased intervened, the first accused inflicted stab injures on her as well. The deceased Siju succumbed to the injuries on the way to the hospital. The petitioner had given all assistance to the first accused in doing the act. The petitioner has been in custody eversince his arrest on

5.

Learned Public Prosecutor has no serious objection in granting bail to the petitioner. It has been submitted by the learned Public Prosecutor that the petitioner is not involved in any other offence of similar nature. No overtact is specifically alleged against the petitioner. The inflictions were made on the deceased as well as his wife by the first accused in the crime. 6.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case including the overtact alleged against the petitioner and also taking into consideration of the fact that the petitioner is the first time offender, I am inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

In the result, this application stands allowed and the petitioner shall be enlarged on bail on his executing a bond for `30,000/- (Rupees thirty thousand only) with two solvent sureties, each for the like sum to the satisfaction of the Court of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class-II, Attingal and subject to the following further

conditions:

(a) The petitioner shall report before the Investigating Officer on every Monday between 09.00 a.m and 11.00 a.m. for a period of four months or until the filing of the final report, whichever is earlier.

(b) The petitioner shall not intimidate or influence the witnesses or in any way tamper with the investigation.

(c) The petitioner shall not get involved in any offence while on bail.

(d) The petitioner shall not enter into the jurisdiction of the Sessions Division, Thiruvananthpuram without the leave of the leaned Magistrate for two months except for the purpose of reporting before the investigating officer as directed in this order. I make it clear that if the petitioner violates any of the conditions of this order, the leaned Magistrate shall be liberty to proceed against the accused in accordance with

law to cancel his bail as held by the Apex Court in P.K.Shaji Vs. State of Kerala (AIR 2006 SC 100). Sd/- B.SUDHEENDRA KUMAR, JUDGE.
