DATE : 7th April, 2011 PER COURT : 1. Heard finally. State seeks cancellation of protection in terms of Section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code to the respondent in Criminal Misc. Application No.577/2010, dated 3.6.2010, recorded by learned Additional Sessions Judge at Ahmednagar on the ground that the respondent, in spite of conscious knowledge of fraudulency in the transaction, has notarised the same. 2. Prima facie the respondent being a Notary/Advocate, has discharged his obligation to notarise the document. It is not the 2 Criminal Application No.3053/2010 case of impersonation and deliberate omission on the part of the accused/ Notary. The Notary has not influenced any of the witnesses. No overt act to jump the bail. Consequently, I do not see any reason to interfere in the order of discretion, which is judiciously exercised. Application rejected, finally disposed of. K.U. CHANDIWAL JUDGE fmp/cri3053.10
