1 BA 1359 OF 2011 vks IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL BAIL APPLICATION NO.1359 OF 2011 Amol Ashok Khandagale .. Applicant. -versus The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. Mr. K. S. Patil, for the applicant. Mr. J. P.Kharge, APP for the Respondent State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: 20th October, 2011 P.C. 1. This is an application for bail by one of the four persons, who had murdered one Nagesh Ghodake. The involvement of the applicant is indicated by oral dying declaration of Nagesh Ghodake made to first informant Naresh Kamble. Applicant was not identified at the test identification parade. A chopper was seized at the instance of applicant on 18.11.2010 from a drain. Learned counsel for the applicant points out that since four days before this i.e. on 14.11.2010, a sword and chopper were seized from the same place at the instance of Kallu @ Kalva Mohmed Shaikh. These weapons were sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory, a report of which is made available for my perusal, shows that they had stains of blood. But the report of blood grouping is inconclusive. The co-accused Mosin Hasan Shaikh, from whom 2 BA 1359 OF 2011 no recovery has been made, has been admitted to bail, by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, by his order dated 15th April,2011. In fact the motive for commission of this murder seems to be that the victim had committed murder of Chandrakant Jagdhane and Pramod Nikalje friends of Mosin Shaikh’s father. Considering the evidence collected against the applicant and the fact that the applicant has not been identified at test identification parade the applicant’s being in custody may not be necessary pending trial. The applicant arrested in C.R. No.289 of 2010 registered Wanawadi Police Station, Pune, be released on bail on his furnishing P.R. bond in the sum of Rs.30,000/- with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs.30,000/- on the condition that the applicant shall report at Wanawadi Police Station, Pune, on every Friday between 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m., till the trial is over.
