Anil Kumar, J. allowed this application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The applicant here is the accused in Crime No. 1158 of 2019, for offences punishable under Sections 418 and 420 of the Penal Code which was registered at Muhamma police station, and then the FIR was forwarded to SHO for investigation than to the Judicial First Class Magistrate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The facts of the case are that the de facto complainant is the Managing Director of the Company-Brothers Coir Mills Pvt. Ltd., registered under the Companies Act, 2013, engaged in the business of manufacturing and exporting of coir products. The brother of the de facto complainant, John Jose, is one of the Director Board Member of the company. The accused worked as Senior Accountant of the company from 01-03-2017 to 31-08-2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The counsel for the respondent, B. Jayasurya, public prosecutor, contended that while the accused worked as a Senior Accountant of the company, he misappropriated the company funds in his own name. The total amount that he misappropriated was Rs 17,05,856. Hence, on this basis, the counsel contended that the accused should not be granted anticipatory bail. The counsel for the respondent hence was in the favour that there is a need for the custodial interrogation of the accused and recovery of the money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The learned counsel for the petitioner, C.K. Sajeev, contended that for proper payments of the TDS amount due from the Company and to prevent hacking account from internet, the misappropriated amount was paid from the account opened in the name of the Director, namely, John Jose, who is the brother of the de facto complainant. The amount was transferred from the Current Account of the Company which was maintained with the South\u00a0 Indian Bank Ltd. to the Current Account maintained and operated by the Board in the SME branch of the State Bank of India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Section 148 of the Penal Code states that in case the accused cheats with the knowledge that he is likely to cause wrongful loss to a person whose interest is the transaction to which the cheating relates, he is bounded to be punished. The prosecution is bound to prove a legal contract.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Section 420 provides that in case where the accused cheats and dishonestly induces the person deceived to deliver any property to any person, to make or destroy or alter, whole or any part of a valuable security, which is signed or sealed and is capable of being converted into valuable security shall be punished as per Section 420.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court after perusing the documents came to the conclusion that there was some dispute between the Board of the Directors of the company and the petitioner, therefore, initiated the prosecution for no reason. The Court hence allowed the anticipatory bail with following directions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">the petitioner will be released on bail in the event of arrest by executing a personal bond of Rs 50,000 along with two solvent sureties each for the amount to the satisfaction of the arresting officer.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">the petitioner will have to appear before the Investigating Officer every Monda between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. for a period of 3 months or till the charge sheet is filed, whichever earlier.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">the petitioner should not in any manner intimidate or influence the prosecution witnesses<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">in case of violation, it is open to the Court having jurisdiction over the case to cancel his bail without any further orders from the Court.[Balaji A.S. v State of Kerala, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/8i91GLeG\"><b>2019 SCC OnLine Ker 6057<\/b><\/a>, decided on 27-12-2019]<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court: N.
