            Dated: 14th day of September, 2010

                               ORDER

Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.217/2010 of

Valayam Police Station for offences punishable under Sections

308, 354 and 452 IPC, seeks his enlargement on bail. The

occurrence took place on 28.7.2010. The petitioner was arrested

on 30.7.2010.

2. The application was opposed on behalf of the

prosecution.

3. Having regard to the nature of the allegations levelled

against the petitioner, the relative conduct of the parties, the

nature of the injury sustained and the other facts and

circumstances of the case, if the petitioner is released on bail, he

will definitely influence and intimidate the prosecution witnesses.

There is also the likelihood of the petitioner making himself

scarce and fleeing from justice. I am, therefore, not inclined to

grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

This petition is accordingly dismissed.

V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE)
