Perused application and the material available on record. 3. The applicant is seeking bail in CR No. I-152 of 2007 registered with Narpoli Police Station for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 326, 504, 506 read with Section 34 of the I.P.C. and Sections 37 (1) read with Section 135 of the Bombay Police Act. 4. According to the prosecution, the victim himself has lodged the F.I.R. Injuries caused to the complainant are by dangerous weapon, like knife on the vital part of the body (i.e. the chest). The complainant sustained as many as four injuries. The learned APP submits that custodial interrogation would be necessary for the purpose of recovery of weapon. Investigation is to be completed. Charge sheet is yet to be filed. Under these circumstances, no case is made out for grant of anticipatory bail. 5. In the above view of the matter, I am not inclined to grant bail. The application is, therefore, rejected. 6. Any observation made in this order shall not be construed as finding or expression on merits of the case at the time of trial. 7. The application is disposed of. (V.C. (V.C. (V.C. DAGA,J.) DAGA,J.) DAGA,J.)
