¶21

3.On perusal of the remarks received from the learned Special Judge for CBI Cases, Madurai, it is found that Rs.35,00,000/- was deposited by the petitioner/accused on 28.06.2021.

¶22

4.The point for consideration is whether the petitioner is entitled to bail pending appeal.

¶23

5.Mrs.L.Victoria Gowri, learned Assistant Solicitor General, had vehemently objected to release the petitioner/accused on bail stating that the case is of the year 2006. Since the petitioner was earlier granted bail, he was absconded and thereafter, he was secured by the police. Therefore, the learned Assistant Solicitor General submits that if the petitioner/accused is released on bail, he is likely to abscond.

¶24

6.Having paid the fine amount, the petitioner is granted bail subject to the following conditions:-

¶25

i) The petitioner shall appear before the learned II Additional District Judge, CBI Cases, Madurai on the first working day of every English Calendar month at 10.30 am., until further orders.
