1 CA-3993.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.3993 OF 2010 Amit Ashok Balpel .... Applicant Vs. State of Maharashtra .... Respondent S/Shri Sachin Thombre with Vikas Shivarkar for the Applicant. Ms S.D. Shinde, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: OCTOBER 01, 2010 P.C: 1. This is an application for bail by a person who is alleged to have been involved in the murder of one Wasim. The facts are somewhat like thus: On the incidental night, the informant and Wasim were drinking in a bar. The applicant was also drinking in the bar on an adjoining table. While opening a Soda bottle, the bottle cap flew and hit the informant. Therefore, the informant and the applicant had an exchange of words. Wasim had nothing to do with this exchange. Thereafter the applicant went away and came back with a person wearing a white shirt. After the informant and Wasim 2 CA-3993.10 completed their quota of drinks, they came out of the bar and then the applicant is alleged to have asked the informant and Wasim as to why they were trying to be too smart in the bar. Wasim intervened. Then the person wearing white shirt took out a knife and hit Wasim on the stomach. Wasim eventually died because of the injury sustained by him. Blood stained clothes and knife were recovered. The applicant was without doubt the person who was wearing pink shirt and was not the assailant who wore the white shirt. 2. From the account of the incident, two things became clear. First, there was no previous enmity, no quarrel, etc.. Secondly, as far as the applicant is concerned, he did not assault the victim Wasim. The applicant had absolutely no intention also to hit Wasim because his quarrel was with the informant. Wasim was assaulted by co-accused Amol Thite. Considering this, though the allegation is that the applicant had brought the assailant inside the bar, the applicant be released on bail in C.R. No.21 of 2010 of Khadak Police Station on his furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs.50,000/- on the 3 CA-3993.10 condition that the applicant will attend the police station concerned every day for the next three months and thereafter on the first Sunday of every month in between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. till the trial is over. The application accordingly stands disposed of. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
