return of the articles pending appeal = Petitioners claim to be legal heirs of deceased G.Surya Kumari. They filed legal heir certificate before the court below. Further more, the accused in the Sessions Case did not claim that M.Os. 1 to 16 belong to them. In the facts and circumstances, imposing condition to execute personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,00,000/- is onerous. Therefore, the condition of executing ‘a personal bond of Rs.10,00,000/- with two solvent sureties for the like sum amount’ is modified and the petitioners shall execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees one lakh only) with two solvent sureties each for the like sum, to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate.
