    Summary: The Judicial Magistrate, Thiruvadanai granted bail to Govinthan, accused of stealing inverter batteries from gram E-Sewa centres under Sections 331(4) and 305 BNS. The court found that while the offense was serious, continued incarceration was unwarranted given the accused's permanent residency reducing flight risk, substantial completion of investigation, and 34 days of custody already served. Bail was granted on conditions including a Rs. 10,000 bond with two sureties, daily court reporting at 10:30 AM and 5:00 PM, cooperation with investigation, and non-interference with witnesses.
