Justice R.BASANT Dated :30/11/2007 O R D E R R.BASANT, J. ---------------------- B.A.No.7367 of 2007 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 30th day of November 2007 O R D E R
Application for regular bail. The petitioner faces
allegations under Section 392 I.P.C. He had allegedly attempted
to snatch a gold chain worn by the de facto complainant. He was
not successful in doing the same. The chain had broken and the
petitioner could not allegedly take the chain. The petitioner had
come to this court earlier with an application for anticipatory
bail. The same was dismissed as per order dated 16/10/2007 in
B.A.No.6254/2007. The case diary was perused by me.
Application for anticipatory bail was rejected and the petitioner
was directed to appear before the court below or the
investigating officer. Accordingly, the petitioner had
surrendered on 13/11/2007. He continues in custody from that
date. The petitioner has no criminal antecedents at all, concedes
the learned Public Prosecutor.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays, the
learned Public Prosecutor does not oppose the said prayer and I
am satisfied that regular bail can be granted to the petitioner
subject to appropriate conditions.
B.A.No.7367/07 2
3. In the result, this petition is allowed. The petitioner
shall be released on bail on the following terms and conditions:
i) He shall execute a bond for Rs.50,000/- (Rupees fifty
thousand only) with two solvent sureties each for the like sum to
the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate.
iii) 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
