jpc aba554-11.sxw 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION NO. 554 OF 2011 Rajendra Bapu Sadole ... Applicant Versus The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent Mr. Indrajeet Joshi i/by Mr. Pradip Rajput, for the applicant Mrs. S. D. Shinde, APP for the State CORAM:- A.M. THIPSAY, J. DATED :- 29th June, 2011. P.C. : 1. Heard Mr. Joshi, the learned advocate for the applicant and Mrs. Shinde, the learned APP for the State. 2. I have gone through the first information report. 3. The alleged offences were committed in the year 2005. What is contended by Mr. Joshi, is that the case of the applicant is on par with that of the co-accused Mr. Shivaji Ananda Korne, who has been granted bail by this Court (ABA No.246/11, decided on 25/4/2011) (Coram: R. C. Chavan,J). 4. I have satisfied myself that the case of the present applicant is on par with that of the co- accused, who has been, as aforesaid, granted anticipatory bail. Even otherwise, there does not seem any justification for refusing to grant anticipatory bail to the applicant, jpc aba554-11.sxw 2 particularly, because Mr. Joshi has submitted that the applicant is ready to abide by the conditions, which this court may impose upon him. It also appears that certain relevant documents have already been seized from the house of the applicant by the investigating agency. 5. The total amount gained by the applicant and other accused appears to be Rs.20000/-. It also appears that this amount has already been deposited by the co-accused as per the conditions imposed by this Court upon him at the time of granting anticipatory bail to him. Though such principal amount is secured, in the circumstances, I think it proper to require even the present applicant to deposit an equivalent sum which also can be kept with the trial court and may be utilised for suitably compensating to the victims, at the conclusion of the trial, if at all the case for payment of compensation would be made out. Mr. Joshi does not object to imposition of such a condition. 6. The Anticipatory Bail Application is allowed. 7. In the event of his arrest in C.R. No.21/2011, registered with Gandhi Nagar Polie Station, Kolhapur, the applicant be released on bail in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with one surety in like amount or two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- each, on the following conditions: i. The applicant shall deposit a sum o Rs.20,000/- with the learned jpc aba554-11.sxw 3 J.M.F. C., 4th Court, Kolhapur within a period of two weeks from today, which the learned trial Court shall invest in a nationalized bank to earn maximum interest and the learned trial Court shall utilise the same at the end of the trial for compensating the victims, if such a case for compensation is made out, or pass any other appropriate order in that regard. ii. The applicant shall make himself available on 4th July, 2011 at 11.00 a.m. for interrogation by Investigating Officer and thereafter as and when required by the Investigating Officer. iii. The applicant shall not, directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer. iv. the applicant shall not leave India without the previous permission of the trial Court. The application stands disposed of accordingly. (A.M. THIPSAY, J.)
