Hudco, Aurangabad, Tq. & Dist. Aurangabad. ....Applicant. Versus The State of Mahrashtra & Anr. ....Respondents. Mr. S.S. Patil, Advocate for applicant. Mr. S.G. Nandedkar, APP for State. Mr. Joydeep Chatterji, Advocate for respondent No. 2. CORAM : T. V. NALAWADE, J. DATED : 10th June, 2011. PER COURT : 1. This application is filed for anticipatory bail in Cr. No. 23/2011 registered at Partur Police Station, District Jalna for offences punishable under sections 420, 467, 468, 471 r/w. 34 of Indian Penal Code. APP is ready with the papers of investigation. Shri. Joydeep Chatterji is there to assist prosecution on behalf of the complainant. Both the sides are heard. 2. In the report given by Prafulla Pandit allegations are made that Cri. Apln. No. 1614/2011 2 when his wife had died on 15.7.2002, a false record of power of attorney was created by some persons and false persons were produced before the authority before whom the document was made. Even another person was produced to show that he is the son of the deceased. By using this false power of attorney, the property, standing in the name of the deceased wife of the complainant, was sold. Allegations against the present applicant are that he has signed on the document as a witness. Query made to the advocate shows that the applicant knows one Choudhari, who has also signed on the document. He submitted that Choudhari is the main accused. Not only the portion which was standing in the name of deceased wife of the complainant was sold, but the portions which were standing in the names of complainant and his son were also sold by producing different persons and by creating false record. Allegations are made that the present applicant used to reside at Mumbai and the accused persons have misused this situation and sold the land. 3. For the applicant it was submitted that anticipatory bail is granted by Sessions Court to Officers like Talathi and Deputy Registrar. Allegations, if any, against these two officers must be of different nature. Allegation of creation of false record, personification and cheating are mainly against the persons who are benefited. It cannot be disputed that present applicant was in contact with Choudhari. The advocate Cri. Apln. No. 1614/2011 3 submitted that the signature of the present applicant on the Vakalatnama is different from his signature which is appearing on the power of attorney. It is the part of investigation. The police will ascertain about the same. So this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail. So the application stands rejected. No further interim relief. [ T. V. NALAWADE, J.] ssc/criapln1614.11
