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 in an unknown crime by the Sholayur Police Station, for allegedly committing the offences under Sections 234 & 326 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
3. Heard; Sri. T.K.Sandeep, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Smt. Seetha. S, the learned Senior Public Prosecutor.
4. The learned Public Prosecutor, on instructions, submits that the petitioner is the sole accused in Crime No.45/2024 of the Sholayur Police Station, Palakkad, registered against him.
5. On a reading of the bail application none of -:3:-
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 accusation 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 at liberty 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 accusation levelled against him.
