( 1 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 3312 OF 2010 Abdul Majeed Abdul Rasheed APPLICANT VERSUS The State of Maharashtra and another RESPONDENTS .... Mr. A.M. Karad, advocate for the applicant. Mr. V.D. Godbharle, APP for the respondents/State. .... [CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J.] [DATE : 7th September, 2010] PER COURT : 1. This is an application for anticipatory bail. 2. Considering the averments in the FIR and the fact that the applicant himself lodged counter FIR and the oral statement of Police Constable Shaikh Javed, it prima facie appears that the applicant is subsequently involved being member of the group which was standing by side of the road when the informant was returning home around 8/8.30 p.m. His direct overtact is not stated in the FIR. The FIR only reveals the overtacts of other two (2) accused persons, who held the informant and the main assailant i.e. Mehmood Pathan who assaulted by means of a katthi (scythe). Considering ( 2 ) these aspects, the application is allowed in terms of the interim order dated 24th August, 2010. The anticipatory bail will come to an end on filing of the chargesheet. [V.R. KINGAONKAR] JUDGE NPJ/criapln3312-2010
