B.A. No. 3100 OF 2007
````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Dated this the 24th day of May, 2007
O R D E R
Petitioner, who is the accused in Crime No.82/07 of
Kuthuparamba Police Station for an offence punishable under section 394
IPC, seeks his enlargement on bail. The occurrence took place at about
7.30 a.m. on 8.4.07. The petitioner was arrested on 26.4.07.
2. Learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application submitting,
inter alia, that the petitioner, who is the none other than the brother’s son of
the defacto complainant, had chased the defacto complainant in a Maruti
car while the defacto complainant was proceeding as a pillion rider on a
scooter driven by his daughter. After overtaking the scooter blocking the
bye wheeler, the petitioner is alleged to have sprinkled chilly powder into
the eyes of the defacto complainant and his daughter and snatched the bag
containing Rs.1,10,000/- and a mobile phone. A portion of the money as
well as the mobile phone were subsequently recovered from the petitioner.
3. The investigation of the case is still in the preliminary stage and
having regard to the submission made by the Public Prosecutor that the
petitioner’s father had threatened the defacto complainant, I am not inclined
to grant bail to the petitioner.
This petition is accordingly dismissed.
(V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE)
