IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY: NAGPUR BENCH: NAGPUR CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.949/2008 Santosh Bhoyar ..vs.. State =================================== CORAM: S.R. DONGAONKAR, J. DATE:5.5.2008 Heard Mr. Walthare, advocate for the applicant and Mr. Patel, A.P.P. for state. This is an application under section 439 of Cr.P.C. for grant of bail. Applicant is facing trial for the offence punishable under section 302 of I.P.C. Applicant seems to have been arrested on 18.9.2006. Considerable time has been lapsed. The beginning of the trial is not in sight. Learned A.P.P. informs that the matter was fixed before the trial court on 30.4.2008, but the charge was not framed on that date. The prosecution has also not produced the property before the court, so also the C.A. Report. With this material o record, it is difficult to come to conclusion that the trial of the applicant would start in near future, much less it would be completed in short time. In these circumstances, as the applicant is in jail since 2006, he would be entitled to bail, however, subject to conditions. The applicant be released on bail on furnishing surety and PRB of Rs.25000/- subject to conditions that he shall not directly or indirectly tamper with the prosecution evidence and shall attend the trial regularly and shall not commit any offence. Bail in trial court. Application stands disposed of. JUDGE smp.
