Mane APP for the respondent/State. ---- Coram : R.S.MOHITE,J Date : 18th March, 2010 PC 1 This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail. The applicant is shown as an accused in C.R.No.85 of 2010 registered by the Loni Kalbhor Police station for alleged offences under Sections 307, 143, 147, 148 and 149 of IPC. A complaint is lodged by the injured Rahul Kamble and there is one eye witness to corroborate his version. In so far as present applicant is concerned, he is alleged to have caused injury by a sword on his finger. Advocate for the applicant contended that the injuries shown in the certificate are simple injuries. Even assuming that simple injuries were caused by a dangerous weapon, the offence would be under Section 324 of IPC. It is possible that if the intention was to kill the injured person then even without causing any injury, police may invoke section 307 of IPC. A sword is yet to be recovered. Motive of the crime is yet to be established. In the circumstances, not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Application is therefore, rejected. (R.S.MOHITE,J) 2 3
