1 ABA-1017.11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1017 OF 2011 {For Anticipatory Bail} 1. Sunita Rajendra Kanhere 2. Rajendra Vishwanath Kanhere .... Applicants Vs. The State of Maharashtra .... Respondent Shri M.V. Shetty for the Applicants. Ms M.R. Tidke, APP, for the State. Shri A.A. Siddiqui for the original complainant. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: DECEMBER 20, 2011 P.C: 1. This is indeed an unfortunate and a strange case of the victims being hounded by the investigating machinery on the complaint of cousin. Applicant No.2 has been allotted Shop No.23 in a Slum Rehabilitation Scheme. There is no allotment of Shop No.23 in favour of the first informant yet the police entertained the complaint of the complainant who had inducted someone else in the shop, and complained of being therefrom dispossessed and theft being committed in the shop. The applicants have in 2 ABA-1017.11 their possession letter of allotment of Shop No.23 to them as also a letter by the Administrator of the Slum Rehabilitation Authority to place applicant No.2 in possession of the shop. In these circumstances, the applicants' being in custody for the purpose of investigation is thoroughly unwarranted. The application is allowed. In the event of the applicants' arrest in C.R. No.622 of 2011 of MIDC Police Station, Mumbai, the applicants be released on bail on their furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of Rs.5,000/- each with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs. 5,000/- per person on the condition that the applicants shall report at the police station concerned on 23-12-2011 at 11:00 a.m. for interrogation and thereafter as and when required by the I.O.. 2. The applicants shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him/her from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer and they shall not leave the country without the prior permission of the trial Court. 3 ABA-1017.11 3. This order shall remain in force till the trial is over with the only stipulation that if charge-sheeted, the applicant may furnish fresh bonds before the trial Court in view of the Judgment of the Supreme Court in Siddharam Satlingappa Mhetre v. State of Maharashtra & Ors., reported in AIR 2011 SC 312. 4. The application accordingly stands disposed of. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
