CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: MAY 02, 2011 P.C: These are applications for bail by a Junior Engineer working in the Town Planning Department of Ulhasnagar Municipal Corporation who had approved several plans. Now the investigation in two of these three matters is 2 BAG-468.11 already over and charge-sheet has been filed. In the third matter, investigation is nearing completion. Considering the nature of the allegations made and the fact that eventually if charge-sheeted in the third matter as well, the applicant would face trial before the learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, the applicant's being in custody for the purpose of investigation or trial would not be necessary unless it is alleged that the applicant's being at large would be prejudicial for a fair trial or the applicant would flee from justice.

In view of this, the applications are allowed. The applicant be released on bail in C.R. No.I-10/2011 of Vithalwadi Police Station and C.R.
