Thumb impression in the surety bond and the learned Magistrate may obtain a copy of their Aadhar Card or Bank Pass Book to ensure their identity.
(b) the petitioner shall appear before the respondent police daily at 10.00 a.m. until further orders.
(c) the petitioner shall not tamper with evidence or witness either during investigation or trial.
(d) the petitioner shall not abscond either during investigation or trial.
(e) On breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the learned Magistrate/Trial Court is entitled to take appropriate action against the above petitioner in accordance with law as if the conditions have been imposed and the above petitioner released on bail by the learned Magistrate/Trial Court himself as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.K.

appear before the first respondent police. Hence, the present petition has been filed seeking cancellation of the bail granted to her.
5. Despite several attempts, notice could not be served on the second respondent. A direction was also issued to the first respondent police to serve notice on her. However, the learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side), on instructions, submitted that the police could not trace her and that her whereabouts are not known.
6. Considering the above circumstances, particularly the failure of the second respondent to comply with the bail conditions and the fact that notice could not be served on her due to her abscondence, this Court is inclined to cancel the bail granted to her. Accordingly, the bail granted to the second respondent by order dated 14.08.2024 in Crl.M.P. No. 22714 of 2024 in Crime No. 123 of 2024, by the Principal Sessions Court, Chennai, is hereby cancelled.
7. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is allowed. 12-11-2026 MPA
