It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in

custody for 192 days and it is further submitted that he has

been falsely implicated in the instant case.

Learned counsel appearing for the State opposes the

prayer for bail.

Having considered the materials in the case diary and

bearing in mind the period of detention suffered by the petitioner

and the fact that trial has not commenced, we are of the opinion

that further detention of the petitioner is not necessary.

Accordingly, we direct that the petitioner shall be

released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/-(Rupees
2

Ten Thousand only) with two sureties of like amount, one of

whom shall be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional

Chief Judicial Magistrate, Lalbag on condition that he shall

appear before the trial court on every date of hearing and shall

not intimidate witnesses nor tamper with evidence in any

manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the trial

court, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail without

further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is, accordingly, allowed.

Urgent Photostat Certified copy of this order, if applied

for, be supplied expeditiously after complying with all necessary

legal formalities.
