IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 1170 OF 2007 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 1068 OF 2007. Chandrabhaga Jagannath More... ...... ......Applicant. V/s State of Maharashtra ... ...... ......Respondent. Mr.Vinod Jadhav i/by Pradip Shingate, Adv. For the Applicant. Mr.D.R.More, APP For the respondent. CORAM: A.P.DESHPANDE, J. 21/2/08 PC: The appeal filed by the present applicant against the judgment and order of conviction passed by the Additional Sessions Judge is already admitted. The applicant is mother-in-law of the deceased who has been convicted for the offence punishable under section 498A of IPC and is sentenced to suffer RI for two years and pay fine of Rs.3000/- in default to suffer RI for three months. Applicant is also convicted for the offence punishable under section 323 of IPC and sentenced to suffer RI for three months and to pay fine of Rs.1000/- in default to suffer further RI for one month. Substantive sentences are directed to run concurrently. It may incidentally be stated that the accused No.1 who is husband of the deceased has been convicted for offence under section 302 and sentenced to suffer RI for life. 1 2. The present applicant was on bail during the trial and it is submitted that she has not mis used the liberty. It is then submitted that it is most unlikely that the appeal filed by the applicant would come up for final hearing before the expiry of period of sentence. I am also informed that the Sessions Judge had himself suspended the sentence imposed on the applicant for a period of one month but the said period has expired. In the circumstances I deem it appropriate to grant bail to the applicant. In the result the applicant shall be released on bail on the same terms and conditions on which she was released on bail during the trial on executing fresh bonds. Application thus stands disposed of. 21.2.08 2
