State of Maharashtra .. Respondents. Mr.Rajeev Patil i/b C.K.Pendse for the applicants. Mr.K.V.Saste A.P.P. for the State. Coram: D.B. BHOSALE, J. Dated : 15th June, 2009 P.C. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicants are seeking bail in C.R. No.18 of 2009 of Sangmeshwar Police Station. The said crime has been registered against the applicants and others for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 302, 323, 504, 498-A read with 34 of IPC. 3. The applicants are husband and wife and are in-laws of the deceased - Iftar Hussain Satwilkar. Mr.Patil, learned counsel for the applicant, at the outset, submitted that there are no allegations against the applicants in the dying declaration attracting the provisions of section 302 of IPC. He submitted that the allegations made in the FIR against the 2 applicants would at the most attract the provisions of section 498-A. I have perused the dying declaration/FIR. It reveals that the husband of the deceased - Iftar poured kerosene on her person and set her ablaze. The allegation in the dying declaration further show that the present applicants were also amongst the persons, who tried to extinguish the fire. Having regard to the dying declaration and the submissions of Mr.Patil, learned counsel for the applicant, I am inclined to enlarge, both the applicants, who are 60 and 57 years old, on bail. Hence the following order. Applicant Nos.1 and 2 are directed to be enlarged on bail in the sum of Rs.10,000/- each with one or two sureties to make up the said amount, subject to condition that the applicants shall report to the concerned police station on every Saturday between 10 am and 11 am till conclusion of the trial. While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case uninfluenced by the observations made in this order. Application is disposed of. (D. B. Bhosale, J.)
