1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 4867 OF 2009 Mr.Sachin Subhakar Balkawade ...Applicant vs. The State of Maharashtra ...Respondent Mr.Rohan V. Nahar for the Applicant. Mr.S.A. Shaikh, APP for the State. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J. DATED : DECEMBER 7, 2009 P.C. :- 1 Heard Counsel for the applicant and APP for the State. 2 The applicant has been arrested in connection with an offence punishable under Sections 302, 324 read with 34 of the IPC and under the provisions of the Arms Act and the Bombay Police Act registered vide C.R.No.100/2009 with Shivajinagar 2 Police Station. 3 It is alleged that accused nos.2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 assaulted one Rupesh Shankar Kore with lethal weapons and as a result of the injuries which were sustained by him, he died. It is alleged that the present applicant is the mastermind behind the assault and the motive behind the attack was the dispute between the applicant herein and the deceased which had taken place about one and half year prior to incident. The only material on record against the present applicant is that one witness has stated that the applicant and one other co- accused were having a long talk with each other one day before the incident and he presumed that that could be with respect to assault which had taken place. This being the only material on record, in my view, the applicant deserves to be released on bail. 4 The applicant be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5000/- with one or two sureties in the 3 like amount. He shall, however, not enter the jurisdiction of Shivajinagar Police Station, except for the purpose of reporting to the Sessions Court. The applicant shall give his new address to the Superintendent of Jail and shall report to the nearest police station from his new residence once in a week. 5 Application is disposed of. (V.M.
