{1} Cri. Application No.539/2011 drp IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.539 OF 2011 Sunil Shrikrishna @ Balasaheb Shahane & Ors. APPLICANTS VERSUS The State of Maharashtra & others RESPONDENTS ....... Mr.N.B.Narwade, Advocate for the applicants Mr.S.D.Kaldate, APP for respondent State Mr.A.A.Ranade, h/f Mr.M.P.Kalte, Advocate for respondent No.2 ....... [CORAM : A.V.POTDAR, J.] DATE: 8 th September 2011 PER COURT: 1. By the present application, the applicants, accused in Sessions Trial No.5/2011 have prayed for transfer of the said trial from the Sessions Court Parbhani to Sessions Court, Ahmednagar. It appears that the transfer is sought on the ground that the applicants are old aged persons and could not travel for more than 200 to 300 km to attend the Court at Parbhani. It is also urged that if the trial is conducted at Parbhani then the applicants {2} Cri. Application No.539/2011 apprehend that there will not be a fair trial. There are no allegations against the judicial officer, who is conducting the trial. In the premise, there is no question of denial of fair trial. So far as old age of the applicants is concerned, if the applicants face any difficulty due to their old age, then they may seek exemption to appear on every date and may appear through advocate. However, definitely, this is not a ground to transfer the trial. Other than this, there is no ground seeking transfer. Consequently, the application, sans merits, stands dismissed.
