IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 943 OF 2009 1. Kondya Lahanya Dalvi 2. Jaywant Raja Dalvi 3.Vishnu Harishchandra Dalvi 4.Ramesh Harishchandra Dalvi ...Applicants Vs. The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent --- Shri V.V. Purwant for Applicant Shri S.R. Shinde, APP for State ---- CORAM: V.M. KANADE J. DATED 21ST MARCH, 2009 P.C. 1. Heard the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Applicants and the Learned APP for the State. 2. An offence has been registered against the Applicants and others vide C.R. No. I-96 of 2008 with Kasa Police Station for the offences punishable under sections 302, 326, 336, 337, 143, 147, 148, 504, 506 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. It is submitted that only role attributed to the present Applicants is that they were throwing stones. It is submitted that the Complainant's group had, in fact, entered their land and they started assaulting the Applicants. Due to the said incident, a cross complaint has been filed against them by the present Applicants and their group. 4. Only one person had given a blow from the Applicants' side on the head of the deceased with stick. Since the chargesheet has been filed and the only role attributed to the present Applicants is that there were pelting stones and no injury has been caused to the deceased as a result of throwing stone on him, in my view, the Applicants deserve to be released on bail. The Sessions Court had rejected bail since the investigation was not over at that time. No purpose would be served in relegating the case in the Session Court merely because the chargesheet has been filed during pendency of this application. 5. The Applicants be released on bail in a sum of Rs.5,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount. The Applicants shall report to the concerned police station once in a month. 6. Application is disposed of. V.M. KANADE J.
