DATED: 13.10.2008 DATED: 13.10.2008 DATED: 13.10.2008 P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: Heard Mr Bansode, learned counsel for the applicants and Mr Yagnik, learned APP for the State. The applicant has prayed for bail in C.R.No.156 of 2008 of Sangola police station, district-Solapur. The said crime has been registered against the applicants for having committed an offence punishable under sections 498(A), 302 read with 34 of IPC. It is on the allegations that the present applicants along with Tanaji Bajbalkar, husband of the deceased Sanju, mercilessly assaulted and killed her. It is true that she died of the head injury which could be attributed to Tanaji. However, that by itself cannot be a ground to enlarge the applicants on bail. The applicants knew that the deceased was pregnant and despite that they allegedly assaulted her by kicks and fist blows. Keeping the nature of the allegations in view and considering that the deceased was pregnant at the time of the alleged incident, in my opinion, this is not a fit case for enlarging the applicants on bail. Hence, the application is rejected. Having considered that the applicants are women, the trial Court shall endeavour to dispose of the trial as expeditiously as possible and preferably within eight months from the date of receipt of this order. While rejecting the application, I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case without being influenced by the observations made in this order.
