Heard.

¶10

The applicant has sought pre-arrest bail apprehending arrest in the crime registered against him for the offences punishable under Sections 408 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code on the accusations that the accused being employees of Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Limited have misappropriated the amount of more than Rs.14,00,000/-. As per the first information report, the accusations against the present applicant are that he has not deposited amount of Rs.72,000/- collected from the customers, in the account of the company. The accusations are that the amount of Rs.72,000/- is collected by the applicant in cash and cheque for that amount was given to be deposited in the account of the company but the cheque is not honoured.

¶11

The learned advocate for the applicant has pointed out that one of the co-accused Rahul is granted prearrest bail by this Court by the order passed in Criminal Application (ABA) No. 165 of 2017 on 11^th April, 2017. It is submitted that the investigation is complete, chargesheet is filed and it is not the complaint of the Investigating Agency

¶13

that the interim protection granted by this Court by the order passed on 23^rd December, 2015 is misused by the applicant.

¶14

The learned A.P.P. has opposed the application on the ground that the applicant has not co-operated with the Investigating Agency and the chargesheet which is filed before the trial Court shows that the applicant is absconding. It is further submitted that the custodial interrogation by the applicant is required to find out the truth. Though the chargesheet filed before the trial Court shows that the applicant is absconding, no such averment is made in the reply filed before this Court. The Investigating Agency has not pointed out the steps taken by it to conduct further investigation by summoning the applicant.

¶15

Considering the facts of the case, in my view, the interim protection granted by this Court is required to be confirmed, however, on modified conditions.

¶16

In the event of arrest in Crime No. 56 of 2015, registered by the non-applicant, the applicant be released on bail on furnishing cash security of Rs.One Lakh and one solvent surety in the like amount.

¶17

The applicant shall attend the proceedings before the trial Court on every date unless granted exemption by the Sessions Court.

¶18

The application is allowed in the above terms.
