( 1 ) cra4765.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 4765 OF 2010 Shaikh Abbas Shaikh Ismail .. Applicant Versus The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent Mr. A.I. Deshmukh, Advocate for the applicant. Mr. D.V. Tele, A.P.P. for respondent/State. CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR,J. DATED : 10.12.2010 P.C. :- 1. The application is for bail. 2. Heard learned advocate for the applicant and learned A.P.P. 3. Considering the investigation papers and the allegations in the F.I.R., it prima facie appears that the applicant suspected extra-marital relations of his wife, by name – Salima. On 30th April, 2010, since about 5 a.m. he ( 2 ) cra4765.10 started beating her by means of handle of axe. The hutment dwellers tried to intervene. The applicant was so much so obsessed with the passion to assault and injure Salima that he was not allowing any one to intervene. He continuously assaulted her till about 8 a.m. and until she was given a last blow of axe on her head and that she fell down in front of the house. She instantaneously met with the death. 4. The fact situation prima facie shows that the applicant went berserk and eliminated his wife due to his suspicion about her illicit relationship with a paramour. The acts of the applicant appear to be quite inhuman, brutal and that he was deprived of all the control and though the neighbouring witnesses attempted to enquire with him the reason, yet he continuously assaulted the wife by means of dangerous weapon i.e. an axe. 5. It appears that bloodstains were found on his cloth. There is direct evidence of neighbouring witnesses about the complicity of the applicant. Considering the relevant aspects, the applicant seems to have forfeited the ( 3 ) cra4765.10 right to remain free during the course of Trial. 6. In the result, the application is dismissed. 7. The observations in this order need not influence the Sessions Court. The Trial of the Sessions case be expedited and be completed as far as possible within nine months. [V.R.
