The applicant has preferred this application through jail praying for temporary bail. The said application is dated 18.8.2008. 2. Mr.D.G.Khamkar, the learned Advocate who is on the list of Free Legal Aid Counsel for High Court Legal Services Committee is appointed to appear for the applicant. 3. Heard the learned Advocated appointed for the applicant and the learned APP for the State. 4. The applicant has been convicted under the Prevention of Corruption Act as well as under ..(2).. Sections 409, 467 etc. of Indian Penal Code. Being aggrieved by the conviction, the applicant preferred Criminal Appeal No.201 of 2007 which has been admitted and is pending before this Court. The applicant had earlier preferred Criminal Application No.238 of 2007 for bail. This Court by order dated 12th March, 2007 granted bail and disposed of the application by observing thus : "On fine amount being paid, the applicant to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one or two sureties to make up the said amount." 5. The fine amount imposed on the applicant was Rs.2 lakhs. Thereafter, Criminal Application No.604 of 2008 came to be preferred by the applicant stating that as the financial condition of the applicant is very poor, he is unable to gather the fine amount of Rs.2 lakhs, hence it was prayed that the fine amount be reduced. This application came to be disposed of by order dated 24th June, 2008 and the Court observed that on Rs.1 lakh out of the fine amount being deposited in the trial Court, the applicant may be released on bail. The bail amount was also reduced from ..(3).. Rs.25,000/- to Rs.15,000/-. Thereafter it appears that as the applicant was unable to furnish surety and pay the fine amount, he remained in jail. Hence, he has preferred this application for temporary bail. Today, this application does not survive because it is seen that the applicant has deposited the fine amount of Rs. 1 lakh on 14.8.2008 and thereafter the applicant has also furnished the surety on 17.9.2008. Hence, this application is disposed of as infructuous. (SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J.) (SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J.) (SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J.)
