The Court allowed the modification petition, extending the surrender period by six weeks subject to a Rs.10,000 deposit with the District Legal Services Authority.
Summary
The petitioner, Kush Kumar, filed a petition seeking modification of an earlier order dated 23.05.2024 that required him to surrender and furnish a bail bond. The petitioner argued for additional time to comply with the surrender requirement. The Court considered the petition and, noting the reasons presented, granted an extension of six weeks from the date of the order. The extension was conditioned upon the petitioner depositing Rs.10,000 each with the concerned District Legal Services Authority and furnishing the receipt along with the bail bond. The Court further directed that the deposited amount may be used by the civil court for purchasing furniture and beautifying court premises. Consequently, the modification petition was allowed, altering the original order accordingly.
