Mr. B.J. Sonawane, A.P.P. for respondent/State. CORAM : R.Y. GANOO, J. DATED : 12.12.2011 P.C. :- 1. Heard learned advocates on both sides. Perusal of the F.I.R. filed by Mr. Lalit Suryawanshi with Nandurbar Police Station goes to indicate that at the hands of at-least some of the applicants, he was kidnapped and ultimately he managed to rescue himself with the help of police attached to Crime Branch of ( 3 ) cria5322.11 Aurangabad Police Station. This F.I.R. if read indicates that the applicants concerned had some role in the matter. The very complainant, by name, Lalit Suryawanshi has rendered statement on 28.11.2011 before Police Officer Mr. Aghav. Perusal of said statement clearly goes to show that this statement which is first in point of time is contrary to the F.I.R. recorded on 29.11.2011. It is not the case of said complainant that the statement rendered by him on 28.11.2011 before police officer Mr. Aghav was secured by any of the applicants under threat. If this be so, a serious doubt is required to be raised about the original F.I.R. dated 29.11.2011. In my view, it would be proper to grant anticipatory bail to each of the applicant with condition to report. Hence, following order is passed :- 2. In the event of arrest of any of the applicants concerning the above three applications in C.R. No. 186 of 2011 registered with Nandurbar Police Station, said ( 4 ) cria5322.11 applicant be released on bail in the sum of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) with one surety in like amount each. Said applicant shall execute P.R. bond in the sum of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) each. All the applicants shall report to the concerned police station firstly on 19.11.2011 between 11.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. and thereafter as and when called for. [R.Y. GANOO, J.] snk/2011/DEC11/cria5322.11
