2021 (1) TMI 455 - HC - CustomsGrant of Bail - bail applications were dismissed for the reason that he had violated the bail condition and there is a possibility that he may again abscond and secondly for the reason that he was undergoing COFEPOSA detention - HELD THAT:- Considering the present pandemic situation, it is not likely that the trial would get over immediately. The applicant's justification for the violation of the condition is that he had gone to Bangalore to meet his son and subsequently, he overstayed and could not return on time to report before the investigating officer as directed by this Court. His leaving jurisdiction and not reporting before the investigating officer initially was with permission. But subsequently, he overstayed and also defaulted the conditions and could ultimately be apprehended only on 12.12.2019 for undergoing detention of COFEPOSA. Hence there is a reasonable doubt expressed by the prosecution that the applicant may again default bail condition. The stringent conditions can be made for granting bail since he has antecedents of violating the bail condition and granting bail - the bail application is allowed and the applicant is directed to be released on bail on the execution of a bond for ₹ 1,00,000/- with two solvent sureties for the like amount each to the satisfaction of the jurisdictional court and on the conditions imposed.
