ORDER ON BAIL APPLICATION ONE FILED BY THE
PETITIONERS UNDER SECTION 439 OF Cr.P.C.
The case of the petitioners is that they are innocent of
the alleged offences and they have never committed nor
involved in the alleged crime either directly or indirectly and
they have been falsely implicated in the instant case only for
statistical purpose and they hails from respectable family and
have no bad antecedents and they are permanent residents of
the addresses as mentioned in the cause title of the petition
and since the instant case is a sue-moto case question of
tampering the witnesses does not arise at all and there is no
specific overt act attributed by the present petitioners and
there is no prima-facie made out against them and there are
no deadly weapons recovered from their possession and the
alleged
offences
are
not
punishable
with
death
or
imprisonment for life and they are ready and willing to abide
by the conditions that may be imposed by the court and they
are also ready to furnish surety to the satisfaction of the
3
Crl.Misc. No.5917/2022
court for their release on bail and since the respondent police
have registered a false case in Cr. No.0193/2022 for the
offences punishable under Section 399, 402 of IPC & under
Section 25(1B)(b), 4 of Arms Act then they prayed for allowing
the above application.

2. On the other hand the learned Public Prosecutor has
filed his objections & opposed the above application that the
grounds urged for seeking bail are not satisfactory & primafacie
discloses
the
involvement
of
the
petitioners
commission of the offences and now at this stage if
in
the
petitioners are granted bail then they may abscond & tamper
the prosecution witnesses which in turn may hamper the trial
& accordingly prayed for rejection of the bail petition.

3. I have heard the arguments of both sides & the points
that would arise for my consideration are as here under;
1) Whether the petitioners have made
out a prima-facie case for grant of bail
as prayed in the bail petition?
2) To what Order?

4. My findings on the above points are as follows:Point No.1 – In Affirmative
4
Crl.Misc. No.5917/2022
Point No.2 – As per final Order, for the following;
R E A SON S
5. Point No.1:- On perusal of the FIR & complaint it is
alleged against the petitioners that they along with other coaccused persons on 09.06.2022 at about 7.00 p.m., had
gathered near pipe line road, Iliyas nagar, K.S. Layout,
Bengaluru equipped with deadly weapons and were hatching
a plan to commit dacoity of the general public who passes
there and thereby committed the alleged offences punishable
under section 399 and 402 of IPC & under Section 25(1B)(b),
4 of Arms Act.

6. Now, it is the contention of the petitioners that they
have not committed any offences as alleged and they are not
at all involved in commission of the offences either directly or
indirectly and a false case has been registered against them
only for statistical purpose.

7. On the other hand though the prosecution has
opposed the case of the petitioners that if the petitioners are
granted bail then they may abscond and tamper the
prosecution witnesses is concerned, the same do no hold any

Crl.Misc. No.5917/2022
water as admittedly the petitioners are in judicial custody
since from the date of their apprehension and more over the
cause title of the petition discloses that they are permanent
resident of Bengaluru and their presence can be secured
easily before the Court.

8. And even otherwise since the alleged offences of 399
and 402 of IPC & under Section 25(1B)(b), 4 of Arms Act are
not at all punishable with death or life imprisonment and
since the petitioners are in custody and since the alleged
offences against the petitioners has to be decided through a
thorough trial and since the apprehension of the prosecution
could be met by imposing stringent conditions then looking
into the nature and gravity of the alleged offences, I am of the
considered opinion that the petitioners have made out a
prima-facie case for grant of bail subject to conditions and
accordingly, I have answered the above point No.1 in
affirmative.

9.

Point No.2 :- In view of the discussion made on
point No.1 and further holding it in the affirmative, I proceed
to pass the following:-
