1 ABA-80.11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.80 OF 2011 Amol Balasaheb Shinde & Anr. .... Applicants Vs. State of Maharashtra .... Respondent Shri D.V. Sutar for the Applicants. Ms A.A. Mane, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: FEBRUARY 21, 2011 P.C: 1. This is an application for anticipatory bail by two applicants who apprehend arrest in an offence punishable under Section 395 of the IPC. The first information report made to the police makes no reference of any robbery or dacoity. The offence was allegedly committed in the year 2006, that is on 23-10-2006. The investigation is complete and the charge-sheet has been filed. Though the learned APP states that the applicants were absconding, the learned counsel for the applicants states that applicant No.1, as a municipal councillor, had been attending the 2 ABA-80.11 municipal council regularly and the applicants were not at all absconding. In view of this, in the event of their arrest the applicants be released on bail in C.R. No.293 of 2006 of Foujdar Chawadi Police Station, Solapur on their furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of Rs. 50,000/- each with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to Rs.50,000/- per person on the condition that the applicants shall report at the police station concerned on 28-2-2011 at 10:00 a.m. and thereafter as and when required by the I.O.. The applicants shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him/her from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer and they shall not leave the country without the prior permission of the trial Court. 2. If nothing further is required to be done against the applicants, the police may send them for trial since the charge-sheet against the other accused has already been filed. 3. This order shall remain in force till the trial is over with the only stipulation 3 ABA-80.11 that if charge-sheeted, the applicants may furnish fresh bond before the trial Court in view of the Judgment of the Supreme Court, dated 2-12-2010, delivered in Criminal Appeal No.2271 of 2010, arising out of SLP (Cri.) No. 7615 of 2009 {Siddharam Satlingappa Mhetre v. State of Maharashtra & Ors.}. 4. The application accordingly stands disposed of. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
