1 3-aba-322-11.sxw IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY srj CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION NO.322 OF 2011 Shri Sachin Maruti Gaikwad .. Applicant. V/s. State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. Mr. K.S. Patil i/b. Mr. Shashank Borade, for the Applicant Mr. Y.M. Nakhwa, APP for the State. CORAM : R.C.CHAVAN, J. DATE : 4th MAY, 2011. P.C.: 1 The applicant was admitted to interim anticipatory bail on the last occasion as the applicant's name did not appear in the F.I.R. as one of the assailants, and since the learned APP sought time. Subsequent, the investigation reveals applicant's involvement in the assault. Also the applicant is alleged to have threatened the complainant and eye witness Ganesh. Thus, applicant has attempted to tamper with the evidence. The learned counsel for the applicant submits that this cannot be ground for rejection of bail application as applicant was known to the first informant and, therefore, absence of 2 3-aba-322-11.sxw applicant's name in the F.I.R. would itself shows that applicant was being falsely implicated due to political reasons. This contention has to be rejected because the report was lodged soon after the incident. The victim has been seriously injured. F.I.R. cannot be an encyclopedia which would contain all the details about the incident. Since the applicant has tried to tamper with the evidence, application is rejected. 2 Interim order dated 20 th April, 2010 is vacated. (R.C.CHAVAN, J.)
