Bail Application No.4080 of 2010

Dated 9th July, 2010.
O R D E R
This petition is for bail.
2. The alleged offences are under Sections 302 and 201 of
the Indian Penal Code. According to prosecution, on 10.4.2010 at about
7 p.m., petitioner hit the deceased Varghese, who is his father with a
hammer, with intention to cause murder and then set fire to the house
to make it appear that it is a suicide. The motive for the crime was
property dispute.
3. Learned counsel for petitioner submitted that petitioner
is in custody for the past 89 days. The charge sheet is already laid, on
30.6.2010.
4. On hearing both sides, I am satisfied that it is not
proper to grant bail to petitioner at this stage, in a heinous crime like
this. Petitioner shall move the appropriate court for expeditious
disposal of the case. In case there is any delay in disposal of the case,
petitioner will be at liberty to move the lower court for bail, again.
Petition is dismissed.
K.HEMA, JUDGE.
