1 CA-4452.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.4452 OF 2010 Rushikesh Maharudra Kurane & Imtiyaz Babasaheb Shaikh .... Applicants Vs. State of Maharashtra .... Respondent Shri Ganesh Gole for the Applicants. Ms S.D. Shinde, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: DECEMBER 22, 2010 P.C: The two applicants, who have been arrested and charge-sheeted for engaging in a conspiracy which led to the murder of one Dattatray Pirgonda Patil, seek enlargement on bail. The allegation is that one Rajendra Prakash Kokane, the co-accused, had forged some false documents in respect of one Vishwanath Anant Moghe who was already dead. Deceased Dattatray had given a report about this forgery. Rajendra was arrested in that crime. Rajendra could not be admitted to bail for a period of about three months because Dattatray had filed a complaint to prevent Rajendra from coming out of jail. Therefore, Rajendra was aggrieved with Dattatray and wanted to 2 CA-4452.10 eliminate Dattatray. The two applicants are alleged to be friends of the said Rajendra. The allegation is that these two persons engaged some hirelings for eliminating the said Dattatray. The investigation is complete and the charge-sheet has been filed. The learned APP could not point out as to why the applicants' being in custody would be necessary for a trial. The two applicants did not have any dispute or grievance with the deceased. They are not said to have actually participated in the murder of the deceased. They are only the friends of Rajendra who had some dispute with the deceased. In these circumstances, the applicants' being in custody pending the trial is not necessary. The applicants be released on bail in C.R. No.35 of 2010 of Kurundwad Police Station, Jaysingpur, Kolhapur on their furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- each with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs.50,000/- per applicant on the condition that they shall attend the police station concerned on the first Sunday of every month in between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. till the trial is over. The application accordingly stands disposed of. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
