Interim protection was granted in favour of the applicant by this Court vide order dated 31.08.2010. 3. Today, when the application came up for final hearing, {2} it is informed that in the said offence charge sheet has been filed before JMFC, Jamkhed and the case is numbered as RCC No. 204/2010. It is also informed that the liberty granted by this Court has not been misused by the applicant. Considering the fact that interim protection is already granted to the applicant and within mean time charge sheet has been filed, it would be desirable to extend the interim protection for a period of one week to enable the applicant to apply for regular bail before the lower court, instead of deciding the matter on merit. In the result, the application is allowed. Interim protection granted in favour of the applicant on 31.08.2010 is extended till 30.10.2010 within which time the applicant may apply for regular bail before the lower court.
