1 42911 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 429 OF 2011 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 1304 OF 2007 Santosh Narayan Deshmukh ...Applicant V/s. The State of Maharashtra ...Respondent Ms. Pushkarini Kulkarni i/by Mr. Kuldeep S. Patil for the Applicant Ms. M.M. Deshmukh, A.P.P., for the State CORAM: A.M. KHANWILKAR, J. DATE: 20 th AUGUST, 2011 (In Chambers) P.C.:- Heard the counsel for the parties. 2. This is second application for bail. The first bail application was allowed to be withdrawn on 3rd April, 2008, with liberty to file fresh application after some time. Accordingly, this application has been filed. 3. So far as merits are concerned, prima facie, I am of the opinion that the finding of fact recorded by the Court below 2 42911 is unexceptionable. The involvement of the applicant in commission of the serious offence such as under Sections 489-A, 489-B, 489-C and 489-D of the Indian Penal Code is clearly established. Recovery of twenty fake currency notes of denomination of Rs.100/- each has been established. Therefore, no case for grant of bail is made out. 4. Besides, from the reply-affidavit now filed by the State, it is noticed that the applicant was released on parole. He failed to abide by the parole conditions. It appears that he over-stayed for a period of 618 days before surrendering to jail. Even on this count, the applicant does not deserve any sympathy. 5. Hence, this application is rejected. 6. It is open to the applicant to apply for expeditious hearing, which request will be considered by appropriate Court on its own merits. A.M. KHANWILKAR, J.
