Sudhakar Dattatraya Kale, 5. Bhaskar Dattatraya Kale, 6. Harishchandra Bhalchandra Kale, .. Applicants Vs State of Maharashtra .. Respondent Mr. Sandeep S Salunkhe, Advocate for the Applicants. Mr. K.V.Saste, APP, for the Respondent. CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE, J. DATE : 18/06/2009 PC: 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicants and learned APP for the respondent. 2. The applicants are seeking anticipatory bail in C.R.No.87 of 2009 of Vairag Police Station. The said crime has been registered against the applicants for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 143,147,148,342, 326,504,506 read with 149 of IPC and section 135 of Bombay Police Act. T 2 3. It appears that there was free fight between two groups, in which persons on both sides sustained injuries. Two persons, namely Gajendra Hajare and Shivaji Gholap sustained two injuries each in the alleged attack made by the applicants. On the other hand, five persons from the applicants’ group sustained injuries. The cross-complaint filed by the applicants’ group, bears C.R.No.89 of 2009. In this cross-case, all the accused have been granted anticipatory bail. I have perused the injury certificates of all injured persons from both the sides and it appears that all the injuries sustained by them are simple in nature. Keeping that in view and considering the order of anticipatory bail passed by the Sessions Court in the cross-case, I am inclined to grant this application for anticipatory bail. Hence, the following order. In the event of arrest, the applicants be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5,000/- each, with one or two sureties to make up the said amount, subject to the conditions stipulated in sub-section (2) of Section 438 of Cr.P.C. Further, the applicants are directed to report to the concerned police station on every Wednesday and Saturday between 10 am and 12 noon for a period of one month and thereafter as and when called. 3 While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case uninfluenced by the observations made in this order. Application is disposed of. (D. B. Bhosale, J.)
