Heard Mr Mundargi, learned senior counsel for the applicant and learned APP for the respondent. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in C.R.No.130 of 2009 of Chembur Police Station. The said crime has been registered against the applicant for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 307, 353, 427 read with 34 of IPC and sections 3, 25 and 27 of Arms Act. 3. The prosecution case, in brief, is that on 9.4.2009 the applicant and his father allegedly attempted to commit murder of the complainant-Shahbudin Dawood Pathan. The complainant, at the relevant time, was driving the BEST bus. It is alleged that on 9.4.2009 at 11 am the bus was stopped by the applicant, who was driving Maruti Swift car, because the complainant did not give him side and allowed him to overtake. He then got down from the car and got into the bus and went upto the driver/complainant and started abusing him. He also allegedly gave two slaps to the driver. Thereafter, he went back to the car. He again got down from the car with pistol and went back to the driver in the bus, and there he allegedly fired a shot towards the driver, which missed him. Mr.Yagnik, learned APP, fairly submitted that an empty cartridge was found outside the bus and not inside the bus. Keeping that in view and considering that the incident occurred at the spur of moment and that it was not premediated,I am inclined to enlarge the applicant on bail.Hence the following order. . The applicant is directed to be enlarged on bail in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one or two sureties to make up the said amount, subject to condition that the applicant shall report to the concerned police station every Saturday between 6 and 7 pm till filing of the chargesheet. . The applicant is allowed cash deposit of the bail amount for a period of two weeks to be substituted with surety in the like amount. . 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. . The application is disposed of. (D.B.BHOSALE, J.) (D.B.BHOSALE, J.) (D.B.BHOSALE, J.)
