APPLN.2817-10 - 1 - VPH IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION No. 2817 OF 2010 Mohammed Yahya Yusuf Sayani ...Applicant Vs. The State of Maharashtra & Anr. ...Respondents *** Applicant in person. Mr. P. S. Hingorani, APP for the Respondent-State. *** CORAM: V. M. KANADE J. DATE : AUGUST 26, 2010 P.C. 1. Heard the learned counsel for the applicant and the respondent. By this application, the original complainant is challenging the order passed by the learned Magistrate, rejecting his application for framing additional charge, as prayed in the said application. The order of the learned Magistrate was confirmed by the Sessions Court. 2. The complaint was filed by the original complainant in respect of incident dated 17th & 18th October, 1989. The charge was framed in the year 1991. The entire evidence has been recorded. The APPLN.2817-10 - 2 - statements of the accused have also been recorded by the learned Magistrate and the matter has been kept for arguments. At this stage the application is filed by the original complainant for framing the additional charge. In my view, taking into consideration the inordinate delay caused in filing such an application at such a belated stage, reasoned orders have been passed by the learned Magistrate and the Sessions Judge in rejecting the application, in my view, this is not a fit case to interfere with the impugned order and the order passed by the learned Magistrate, in exercise of jurisdiction under S. 482 of Cr.P.C. The criminal application is therefore, rejected. [ V. M. KANADE J.]
