State of Maharashtra & Anr. .. Respondents. .... Mr.Amol Deshpande, Advocate for the applicants. Mr.P.S. Hingorani, A.P.P. for the State. .... CORAM : A.R.JOSHI, J. DATED : 10th JUNE, 2010 P.C. 1. Heard rival submissions for some time on this application for anticipatory bail preferred by total 18 applicants, apprehending their arrest in Deccan police station C.R. No.376 of 2008 for the offence punishable under Sections 406, 409, 420, 34 of Indian Penal Code. 2. Today, it is submitted by the learned Advocate for the applicants and also by the learned APP for the State that the 7crn2356-10 2 investigation in the said matter has already been over and a chargesheet has been filed before the concerned Court on 13th April, 2010 and admittedly none of the present applicants are mentioned as accused or absconding accused in the said chargesheet. In this factual position, the present anticipatory bail application cannot be sustained. Hence at least at this stage the apprehension of the applicants as to being arrested in the concerned crime number is ill-founded. Consequently, the present application is disposed of as dismissed.
