¶5

The allegations made against the petitioner would show that on the date of incident, the vigilance staff, along with revenue staff and mediators, proceeded to Yaragam Sand ramp, where they found seven lorries loaded with sand. The sand was loaded with the help of JCB (Tata) Hitch Ex.200. When enquired, the lorry drivers present there, are alleged to have disclosed that the lorries were loaded on the instructions given by the petitioner herein, who was a mediator. Basing on the same, the above case came to be registered against the petitioner and 14 others.

¶6

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent-State.

¶7

A perusal of the material on record would disclose that the petitioner herein was a mediator and was instrumental in loading the sand in to the lorries. It is true that the petitioner was not present at the scene of offence, but the statements of the lorry drivers would show that at the instance of petitioner only the lorries were loaded with sand. In view of the above, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
