State of Maharashtra) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-- Office Notes, Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions : Court's or Judge's orders and Registrar's orders. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Shri Firdos Mirza, Advocate for Applicant. Shri A.S. Sonare, APP for Respondent-State. Shri S.P. Deshpande, Advocate for Original Complainant. CORAM : A.H. Joshi, J. DATE : 12th June, 2008 1. This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail. 2. Heard Shri Firdos Mirza, learned Advocate for the applicant, Shri A.S. Sonare, learned APP for the respondent-State, and Shri S.P. Deshpande, learned Advocate for the original complainant, who has filed application for assisting the prosecution. 3. It is not in dispute that there is a civil dispute, and controversy is pending between the parties. The civil suit is filed by the present applicant on 5-1-2008. 4. Interim order of injunction was passed by the Trial Court on 1-3-2008. 5. The FIR is based on an oral report lodged on 12-4-2008. 6. The crux in the complaint/FIR is that the accused has at the request of complainant got the complainant's Monthly Income Scheme (MIS) account transferred from Dehradun to Chandrapur, and the accused has then withdrawn the amount of Rs.1,56,000/- from said account fraudulently. 2 7. This complaint is lodged in the background that it is the version of the complainant that there was a money lending transaction and complainant used to pay to the accused monthly interest. 8. Considering the transactions and disputes between the parties, and pendency of the suit, there is a strong possibility that the version of the accused that he is not involved in the commission of offence is most probable. 9. Chances of the accused fleeing away from the law are not expressed. The applicant has thus made out a case for grant of relief of release on bail in the event of arrest. 10. In view of this, the application is allowed and ad interim order passed by this Court on 23-4-2008 is made absolute. JUDGE pdl
