Dated this the 29th day of January, 2008
ORDER
These applications by the common petitioner are for regular
bail. Crimes are registered under Section 379 I.P.C. The
allegation is of theft of motor cars. The cars in question were
stolen on 03.12.07 and 07.11.07. The petitioner was arrested and
remains in custody from 13.12.07. His applications for regular
bail were earlier dismissed as per common order dated 10.01.08.
He was permitted to move this Court again after 24.01.08.
Accordingly these applications have been filed on 24.01.08.
2. I have adverted to facts in detail in the common order
dated 10.01.08 in B.A.Nos.7595 and 8011 of 2007. This common
order must be read in continuation of the said common order. I
am not, in these circumstances, adverting to facts in any greater
detail in this order. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits
that the co-accused, who was also arrested on 13.12.07, has now
been granted regular bail by the learned Sessions Judge in Crime
No.618 of 2007.
B.A.Nos.570 & 579 of 2008 2
3. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays, the
learned Public Prosecutor does not oppose the said prayer and I
am satisfied that the petitioner can now be enlarged on bail in
both cases subject to appropriate terms and conditions. In the
absence of opposition by the learned Public Prosecutor, I am not
adverting to facts in any further detail.
4. In the result, these bail applications are allowed. The
petitioner shall be released on bail on the following terms and
conditions.
i) In each case, the petitioner shall execute bonds for
Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty thousand only) with two solvent sureties
each for the like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate;
ii) The petitioner shall make himself available for
interrogation before the Investigating Officer between 10 a.m and
12 noon on all Mondays and Fridays for a period of two months
and thereafter as and when directed by the Investigating Officer
in writing to do so.
