ORDER
Petitioner, who is accused No.2 in Crime No. 375/2010 of
Parassala Police Station for offences punishable under Sections
292, 295(A), 469, 120(b) of the Indian Penal Code and Sections
66 and 67 of the Information Technology Act, seeks anticipatory
bail.
2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application.
3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this
nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the
petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the
purpose of interrogation and then to have his application for bail
considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the
petitioner shall surrender before the investigating officer on
20.09.2010 and 22.09.2010 for the purpose of interrogation
and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner
shall thereafter be produced before the Magistrate concerned and
file an application for regular bail. On being convinced that the
petitioner has been interrogated by the police, the Magistrate shall
preferably on the same date on which the application is filed,
B.A. NO. 4799/2010 2
release the petitioner on bail on his executing a bond for
Rs.15,000/- (Rupees fifteen thousand only) with two solvent
sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the
Magistrate and subject to the following conditions:-
1. The petitioner shall report before the
Investigating Officer between 9 a.m. and 11
a.m. on all Wednesdays.
2. The petitioner shall make himself available for
interrogation including custodial interrogation
as and when required by the Investigating
Officer.
3. Petitioner shall not influence or intimidate the
prosecution witnesses nor shall he attempt to
tamper with the evidence for the prosecution.
4. Petitioner shall not commit any offence while
on bail.
5. If the petitioner commit breach of any of the
above conditions, the bail granted to him
shall be liable to be cancelled.
This petition is disposed of as above.
Dated this the 9th day of September, 2010.
