1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MUMBAI CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2546 OF 2009 Chand Babu Abdul Kashim Malik .. Applicant. Vs. State of Maharashtra .. Respondents. Mr.D.S.Mahispurkar for the applicant. Mrs.S.D.Shinde A.P.P. for the State. Coram: D.B. BHOSALE, J. Dated : 22nd June, 2009 P.C. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in C.R.No.204 of 2008 of Dombivli Police Station, District Thane. The crime has been registered against the applicant and others for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 328, 379 r/w 34 of IPC. 3. The applicant came to be arrested in connection with aforementioned crime on the basis of the statement of a co-accused, who came to be arrested on 7.1.2009. I have perused the FIR and seen the nature of allegations against the applicant. The applicant also came to be arrested on 7.1.2009. The applicant is a married person having two minor 2 children. The charge-sheet has already been filed. The trial is likely to take long time. In view thereof I am satisfied that continued detention of the applicant is not necessary. Hence the following order: Applicant to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5,000/- with one or two sureties to make up the said amount, subject to the condition that he shall report to the concerned police station on first Saturday of every month between 6 pm and 7 pm till conclusion of the trial. 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.)
