ORDER

The application is filed under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, for an order of pre- arrest bail.

2. The petitioner apprehends arrest by the

Ernakulam Town South Police Station in Crime No.2643/2023 for allegedly committing the offences punishable under Sections 408 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code ('IPC', in short).

3. Heard; Sri.John Joseph, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri.C.S.Hrithwik, the learned Public Prosecutor.

4. The learned Public Prosecutor on instructions submitted that the petitioner is the 2nd accused in the above crime, which has now been transferred to the

Crime Branch. The matter is under investigation. Therefore, the allegation in the bail application that the petitioner is not an accused is incorrect. The said submission is recorded.

5. On a reading of the bail application none of the

details pertaining to the incident, crime number or the offences have been mentioned. The bail application is vague and lacks the requisite details, particularly the accusations levelled against the petitioner. Therefore, in view of the conspicuous absence of the elementary details, I hold that the application is not sustainable, and the petitioner is to be directed to file a fresh application after incorporating all the requisite details.

In the result, the bail application is dismissed, without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to file a fresh bail application after incorporating his rank, crime number, the offences and also the specific accusations levelled against him. Sd/- C.S.DIAS JUDGE rkc/25.03.24
