The State objected to the application for bail on the ground that the applicant has had criminal propensity. Learned counsel for the State invited the attention of court to five previ
ous convictions against the applicant. Previous convictions referred to above, relate to offences of robbery on 11th January, 2002, offences of larceny on 24th April, 2004 and 27th May, 2004 and to an instance of \lquote  failure to surrender to bail bond
\rquote  on 29t
h January, 2007. In addition, the applicant is charged for similar offences in case No HCA 58/10 before this court. The State has further submitted that the offences, with which the applicant stands charged, are very serious in nature and have the undesir
ed effects of affecting public order and threatening the protection of community.

be released on bail on strict conditions in view of the matters placed before court in his application and the letters addressed to court. The contents of the application and those of the letters focused the attention of court on the inconveniences that h
e has got to suffer because of his detention in custody.}{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid7276470  }{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid7276470\charrsid7276470

I have considered the contents of the application, the letters of the applicant and his plea at the oral hearing along with submissions of the learned State Counsel bearing in mind the legal phraseology that an accused person has \lquote \'85
a right to be released on bail\'85\rquote  and that \lquote there is a presumption in favour of the granting of bail\'85\rquote  under Section 3 of the Bail Act.

been declared as a necessary factor to be considered by court in affording \lquote the right to be released\rquote 
 to an accused person under the Act. Moreover, the presumption favouring the accused could be rebutted by a person opposing the grant of bail by the criter
ia laid down in Section 18 (1) of the Act, which include the public interest and the protection of community.

While the scheme of the Act provides a basis for a person opposing bail to rebut the presumption favouring an accused-person under Section 1
8(1) read with section 3 (3) of the Act, I am of the view that court is also invested with power independent of such opposition by a party to consider issues concerning \lquote interests of justice\rquote  and \lquote public interest\rquote 
 under Section 3(1) and Sections 19 (1) and 19 (2) of the Act.

ons of Section 19 (2) (b) with reference to the interests of the accused-person to which court should essentially pay due consideration in dealing with an application for bail. However, my consideration of the matters as set-out in Section 19 (2) (b) are 
outweighed by the demands of interests of justice and public interest as enumerated above.
