2. Heard both sides.
3. I am unable to comprehend as to how, by making the petitioner to report before the Judicial Magistrate, Alandur would prevent him to bring down the chances of absconding lesser.
4. In view of the same, the order passed by the learned Principal District and Sessions Judge, Kancheepuram at Chengalpattu in Crl.MP. No. 3812 of 2017 dated 01.11.2017 is modified to the effect that the petitioner shall report before the Judicial Magistrate No.I, Tuticorin daily at 10.30 A.M instead of reporting before the Judicial Magistrate, Alandur in connection with Crime No. 937 of 2017 on the file of the Inspector of Police, Pallikaranai Police Station, St.Thomas Mount,Chennai and also report before the respondent police as and when required.
