According to the learned Advocate for the applicants accusations were made against as many as eleven persons, out of which all other accused have been granted bail. Regarding merits of the accusations, it is contended that in the FIR itself, accusations have been made against Umesh Namdeo Ade that he had demanded a sum of Rs.1,30,000/- which was paid to him by the first informant and marriage between the said Umesh and Priti (daughter of the first informant ) was fixed on 21.6.2009 at Kavita Mangal Karyalaya. But, it is alleged that since dowry amount was given less and more amount in the sum of Rs.1,00,000 was not paid, the marriage party did not arrive for solemnizing the marriage. Learned Advocate for the applicants contended that the demand for dowry is attributed to Umesh Namdeo Ade and the present applicants had no role to demand dowry sought to be recovered from Umesh; as also Umesh has already been released on bail. 2. Learned APP opposed grant of bail on the ground that the daughter of the first informant who was to marry with Umesh on 21.6.2009 could not marry with him because of demand for more dowry amount and, as such, the applicants be denied the benefit of bail. 3. Considering the fact that the accusations regarding demand for dowry is made against accused Umesh Namdeo Ade, who was already 2 released on bail in order to recover the amount paid to Umesh, custodial interrogation of these applicants is not necessary, however, they are required to cooperate with the investigating Officer as and when required.
