¶2The case of the prosecution is that the deceased, who is sister son of the defacto complainant and stayed with her. On 12.11.2025 at about 08.00 am the deceased informed that he obtained loan from accused-1 and therefore, he went to the village of A1. Wherein the deceased was brutally attacked by A1 and her family member and friends fro returning the loan and also abused with filthy language. From 12.11.2025 to 14.11.2025 the deceased abused and threatened to repay the loan amount. Later, the deceased went to his house and committed suicide by hanging on 14.11.2025. Hence, the present case came to be registered.

¶3The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submitted that the petitioner has been suffering incarceration from 14.11.2025 and he is ready to abide by any stringent conditions that may be imposed by this Court. Hence, he prayed bail for the petitioner.

¶4The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) appearing for the respondent police reiterated the prosecution case and submitted that there is no previous case against the petitioner. However, he vehemently opposed to grant of bail to the petitioner.

¶5Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record including the First Information Report.

¶6Considering the nature of offence and the petitioner is not a named accused in the First Information Report and based on the confession statement of the co-accused he was included in this case and no previous case against the petitioner and also fact that the period of incarceration of the petitioner, this Court is inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, subject to certain conditions. [a] Accordingly, the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail on his executing a bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) with two sureties, each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the Judicial Magistrate, Cheyyar, Tiruvannamalai, and on further conditions that:- [b] the petitioner shall report before the respondent police on every Saturday at 10.30.a.m., until further orders; [c] the petitioner shall not commit any offence similar to the offence of which he is accused, or suspected, or of the commission of which he is suspected; [d] the petitioner shall not abscond either during investigation or trial; [e] the petitioner shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence; [f] On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Judicial Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate action against the petitioner in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the petitioner released on bail by the learned Magistrate/Trial Court himself as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.K.Shaji vs. State of Kerala [(2005)AIR SCW 5560].
