This is an application for grant of leave to file appeal by the State. The accused was originally convicted for an offence punishable U/s. 342 of the I.P.C. for wrongfully confinement of his wife and instead of imposing minimum sentence he was directed to be released on execution of bond which was to be in force for the period of one year. That order is dated 12.10.2004. The period of one year was already over. The appellate court has acquitted the accused on the ground that the alleged confinement is not proved. The Appellate Court has held that the relations between the husband and the wife were strained. It was alleged that the wrongful confinement was made with the help of the nurse. The said nurse was not examined. Taking an over all view of the matter, this is not a fit case for grant of leave against the order of acquittal. As the view taken by the Appellate Court is possible view. Hence, leave refused. Application is disposed off. (R.S. MOHITE, J.)
