DATE : 29TH JULY, 2011 cra3092.11 2 PER COURT : 1. This Application is filed for anticipatory bail in C.R. No.I-196 of 2011 registered in Taluka Jalna Police Station, Dist- Jalna, for the offences punishable under Sections 3(1)(X) of S.C. & S.T. (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, under Sections 7 (1)(d) of the P.C.R. Act and Sections 147, 447, 504 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code. The papers of investigation were made available. Both the sides are heard. 2. The crime is registered on the basis of report given by one Sudhakar Nikalaje. He has contended that he has some portion in Gut No.27 and present Applicants are harassing him to dispossess him. He has contended that on 4th June, 2011, at about 4.30 p.m. Applicants came to the field and they gave him abuses by naming his caste like 'Dhedga' and they gave threats to the complainant. Allegations are made that he is in cra3092.11 3 possession and as the land was with his family under Tenancy Act and as the S.D.O. has decided one matter in his favour, the Applicants are unnecessarily harassing him. 3. Copy of 7 X 12 extract is produced by the Applicants to show that names of the Applicants are entered in revenue record in respect of some portion of the land. In the police papers, there is copy of order made by S.D.O., in respect of tenancy proceeding. It appears that civil dispute is pending. In the complaint itself the complainant has contended that the Applicants were contending that land is with them under mortgage. Thus, there is possibility that real dispute is different. 4. In view of the aforesaid circumstances and as custodial interrogation is not necessary, this Court holds that anticipatory bail needs to be granted to the Applicants. So, the Criminal cra3092.11 4 Application is allowed. Interim relief granted by this Court by order dated 20th July, 2011, is confirmed. [T.V. NALAWADE, J.] asb/JULY11
