The applicant has now prayed that she may be permitted to furnish any other surety in place of Smt.Shantidevi Baban Sonar and discharge earlier surety Shantaram Babu Ganave because Smt.Shantidevi Sonar has refused to stand surety.

In the circumstances of this case, if any person is prepared to stand as surety the applicant along with that person may approach the Registrar of 3 the Sessions Court at Mumbai with an application to that effect. The Registrar of Sessions Court at Mumbai shall then make necessary enquiry and if he finds that the person who wants to stand as surety is solvent and proper, discharge Shantaram Babu Ganave who is the earlier surety, and substitute the new surety in his place. Earlier order dated 20.10.2005 stands modified to this effect. 5. Criminal application is disposed of in aforestated terms. [SMT.RANJANA DESAI,J.] [SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J.]
