The prosecution case is that the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>committed the offence under Sections 304 and 308 of the Indian<\/p>\n<p>Penal Code. The petitioner was arrested on 15-1-2010 and he was<\/p>\n<p>remanded to judicial custody.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      2. On 6-1-2010, 37 pilgrims started their journey in a goods<\/p>\n<p>lorry from Nandigram in Krishna District in the State of Andhra<\/p>\n<p>Pradesh. They intended to go to Sabarimala for &#8220;makaravilakku&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>They were travelling via Shree Sailam, Mahanandi, Dharmasthala<\/p>\n<p>and Mysore.     On 12-1-2010, at about 12 noon, they arrived at<\/p>\n<p>Erumeli. After &#8220;petta thullal&#8221;, by about 6 P.M., they started from<\/p>\n<p>Erumeli. From the inception of their journey, Abdul Salim was driving<\/p>\n<p>the vehicle. While starting from Erumeli, Abdul Salim said he was<\/p>\n<p>sleepy. The &#8220;Guruswami&#8221; directed the petitioner, a pilgrim in the<\/p>\n<p>group and a driver by profession, to drive the vehicle. After some<\/p>\n<p>B.A. NO. 703 OF 2010<\/p>\n<p>                                      :: 2 ::\n<\/p>\n<p>time, at a place called &#8220;Kanamala atti valavu&#8221;, it would appear that<\/p>\n<p>the driver lost control of the vehicle. It hit against a revetment and<\/p>\n<p>capsized.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      3. In the accident, 11 persons died and 15 persons were<\/p>\n<p>injured.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      4. In the goods lorry, 37 persons were travelling. Sand was<\/p>\n<p>partly filled in the platform of the lorry and about 10 sacs filled with<\/p>\n<p>sand were also placed there, probably to avoid jerks. The lorry was<\/p>\n<p>covered with a Shamianah for the convenience of the passengers.<\/p>\n<p>When the accident took place, the sand and the structure of the<\/p>\n<p>Shamianah fell on the pilgrims, which contributed to the gravity of the<\/p>\n<p>accident.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      5.    The inspection report of the Joint Regional Transport<\/p>\n<p>Officer, Kanjirapally shows that the accident occurred not due to any<\/p>\n<p>mechanical defect of the vehicle.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      6. From the case diary, it is seen that another lorry carrying<\/p>\n<p>pilgrims was also following the lorry driven by the petitioner.<\/p>\n<p>B.A. NO. 703 OF 2010<\/p>\n<p>                                     :: 3 ::\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>       7. It would appear that pilgrims from other States are using<\/p>\n<p>goods vehicles for their journey to Sabarimala and other places. The<\/p>\n<p>Motor Vehicles Act does not permit passengers being taken in goods<\/p>\n<p>vehicle.   How could the lorry carrying passengers cross the border<\/p>\n<p>of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala without any objection from<\/p>\n<p>any authority ? It is true that if the pilgrims are intercepted in Kerala<\/p>\n<p>and prevented from continuing their journey in goods vehicles, it<\/p>\n<p>would cause hardship to them.             But that is not a sufficient<\/p>\n<p>explanation for the transgression of the provisions of the Motor<\/p>\n<p>Vehicles Act and Rules. Shutting eyes to the violation also would not<\/p>\n<p>constitute a final solution to the problem. I think the Government<\/p>\n<p>would be able to deal with the problem by communicating with the<\/p>\n<p>neighbouring States so that effective methods could be evolved. If<\/p>\n<p>the goods vehicles carrying pilgrims from other States           are not<\/p>\n<p>allowed to cross the border of the respective States, it would be an<\/p>\n<p>effective solution to the problem. The neighbouring States could be<\/p>\n<p>requested not to allow such vehicles to cross the border of those<\/p>\n<p>States. Adequate publicity could also be made to the effect that<\/p>\n<p>under no circumstances, the pilgrims would be allowed to travel in<\/p>\n<p>goods vehicles to Sabarimala and other pilgrim centres.<\/p>\n<p>B.A. NO. 703 OF 2010<\/p>\n<p>                                     :: 4 ::\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      8. The Bail Application filed by the petitioner was dismissed by<\/p>\n<p>the Judicial Magistrate of the First Class II, Kanjiriappally and by the<\/p>\n<p>Sessions Judge, Kottayam, respectively as per the orders dated 19th<\/p>\n<p>January and 28th January 2010. The investigation of the case has<\/p>\n<p>progressed thereafter. The learned Sessions Judge held that the<\/p>\n<p>correctness of the address furnished by the petitioner is to be<\/p>\n<p>ascertained. Before this Court, the petitioner has produced copies of<\/p>\n<p>his electoral identity card and ration card to show his correct<\/p>\n<p>address. The originals of these documents were shown to me for<\/p>\n<p>perusal. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not think<\/p>\n<p>that the petitioner should be detained further.<\/p>\n<p>      9. The petitioner shall be released on bail on his executing a<\/p>\n<p>bond for Rs. 25,000\/- with two solvent sureties for the like amount to<\/p>\n<p>the satisfaction of the Judicial Magistrate of the First Class II,<\/p>\n<p>Kanjirapally, subject to the following conditions:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>     (A)The petitioner shall report before the investigating<br \/>\n        officer between 9A.M. and 11 A.M. on the first Monday<br \/>\n        of every month, till the final report is filed or until<br \/>\n        further orders;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>B.A. NO. 703 OF 2010<\/p>\n<p>                                     :: 5 ::\n<\/p>\n<p>\n     (B)The petitioner shall appear before the investigating<br \/>\n        officer for interrogation as and when required;<\/p>\n<p>     (C)The petitioner shall not try to influence the prosecution<br \/>\n        witnesses or tamper with the evidence;\n<\/p>\n<p>     (D)The petitioner shall not commit any offence or indulge<br \/>\n        in any prejudicial activity while on bail;<\/p>\n<p>     (E)In case of breach of any of the conditions mentioned<br \/>\n        above, the bail shall be liable to be cancelled.<\/p>\n<p>      The Bail Application is allowed as above.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n      The Registry will communicate a copy of this Order to (1) the<\/p>\n<p>Chief Secretary to the Government, Government of Kerala ; (2) the<\/p>\n<p>Secretary to Government, Department of Transport and            (3) the<\/p>\n<p>Secretary to Government, Department of Tourism.<\/p>\n<p>                                                    (K.T.SANKARAN)<br \/>\n                                                           Judge<\/p>\n<p>ahz\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Bhupathi vs State Of Kerala on 22 February, 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM Bail Appl..No. 703 of 2010() 1.
