( 1 ) Cri.Appln4945-10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 4945 OF 2010 Rahul s/o Arjunrao Chavan, R/o Khaparpangari, now residing at Tirupati Colony, Beed, District Beed. APPLICANT VERSUS The State of Maharashtra RESPONDENT .... Mr. S.S. Thombre, advocate for the applicant. Mr. N.H. Borade, APP for the respondent/State. .... [CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J.] [DATE : 23rd December, 2010] PER COURT : 1. The application is for anticipatory bail. 2. Heard learned advocate for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 3. The applicant is Assistant Teacher and apprehends arrest in connection with Crime No. 209/2010, registered at Shivajinagar Police Station, Beed for the offences punishable under section 324, 323, 504 and 506 read with section 34 of ( 2 ) Cri.Appln4945-10 the I.P. Code. 4. The FIR prima facie purports to show that the applicant dealt blow of a sword on the right calf of the informant - Akshay. It appears that the applicant abused the informant and thereafter, he alongwith other two (2) co- accused assaulted the informant. The Medico-Legal Certificate, however, shows that there was a single contused lacerated wound found on right forearm of informant Akshay. That too is said to have occurred due to use of hard and blunt object. In other words, the recitals of the FIR do not stand, prima facie, corroborated by the observations of the Medical Officer. I mean to say that there is no corresponding injury noticed by the Medical Officer on the right calf of the injured and, therefore, it can be gathered that the involvement of the applicant in the alleged offence is probably by way of some afterthought accusations made against him. His arrest in such a case is not necessary. He is likely to be humiliated and probably is likely to become a laughing stock or a school teacher who is likely to be ridiculed by his pupils. 5. In the result, the application is allowed. The ( 3 ) Cri.Appln4945-10 applicant is directed to be released on bail on furnishing of the bail bonds as directed vide interim order dated 2nd December, 2010 and on further condition that he shall attend the concerned Police Station on each Sunday between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. for four (4) consecutive Sundays hereafter and shall actively cooperate with the Investigating Officer and shall make no attempt to tamper with the evidence of prosecution.
