Both the cases pertain to Kalyan Railway Police Station. The said cases are under Sections 143, 149, 337, 353, 436, 174, 152 of IPC. The applicant has prayed that his case may be separated and he be tried separately in the said cases. The reason for the said prayer is that 65 persons are involved in the said cases and most of the accused persons have been granted bail. Now these accused persons who have been granted bail are not regularly appearing before the trial court and, :2: therefore, the trial is prolonged. Hence, he is praying for separating his case from that of the other accused and that he be tried separately. 2. The learned APP submitted that by order dated 15/11/2008, the Sessions Court at Kalyan has granted bail to the applicant in both these cases. 3. In view of the fact that the applicant has been granted bail in both the cases, at this stage, I see no reason to separate his case. Hence, application is disposed of. (Smt.V.K. Tahilramani,J.)
