The facts in the context of which this application is made are as under: 2. One Sanjay Shinde had purchased a secondhand truck which was standing in his name. Dhanaji claimed that the truck was purchased by him and Sanjay together and Dhanaji was helping Sanjay for getting the truck repaired from time to time. Sanjay was refusing or avoiding to repay the money. The transaction in respect of the truck was settled with one Shaikh of Karad with the mediation of the present applicant on 12-10-2010. However, 2 CA-5321.10 Dhanaji did not get his money back. The applicant is alleged to have threatened Dhanaji that he should not ask for any money from Sanjay Shinde and in fact he should pay to the applicant a sum of Rs.5,000/-. Dhanaji is alleged to have murdered Sanjay Shinde and a crime is registered. The applicant was granted interim bail by the trial Court but since the police alleged that the applicant had not attended the police station, the bail order was not confirmed. The learned counsel for the applicant states that since those were days of Diwali and since the police officers themselves were not available in the police station, he did not attend the police station. Be that as it may, the learned counsel for the applicant states that the applicant would now scrupulously attend the police station whenever required. Given the nature of the allegations made, it is not clear as to why the applicant s custodial interrogation would be necessary for the purpose of investigation. In view of this, the application is allowed. In the event of his arrest the applicant be released on bail in C.R. No.40 of 2010 of MIDC Kupwad Police Station on his furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs.50,000/- 3 CA-5321.10 on the condition that the applicant shall report at the police station concerned every day from 10-12-2010 till 20-12-2010 between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. and thereafter as and when required by the I.O..
