1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MUMBAI CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2107 OF 2009 Prakash Chandrakant Mahadik .. Applicant. Vs. State of Maharashtra .. Respondents. Mr.Vishwajeet Patil for the applicant. Mrs.S.D.Shinde A.P.P. for the State. Coram: D.B. BHOSALE, J. Dated : 16th June, 2009 P.C. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in C.R.No.287 of 2007 of Deccan Police Station, Pune. The said crime has been registered against the applicant and others for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 302, 504 r/w 34 of IPC. 3. It is the prosecution case that the present applicant abused, assaulted and set his mother on fire. There is a dying 2 declaration of the deceased – Rukmini on record. In the dying declaration, the deceased has implicated the applicant. There is direct evidence on record against the applicant. In my opinion, this is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. Hence the application is rejected. While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case uninfluenced by the observations made in this order. Application is disposed of. (D. B. Bhosale, J.)
