The prosecution case is that on 8.10.2007 at 8.30 pm all the accused in these two applications assaulted the deceased - Pradeep Shinde with swords and choppers in their hands and committed his murder. I have perused the FIR and statements of all the eye witnesses, which are consistent. The specific role has been assigned to the present applicants, who allegedly assaulted the deceased with swords in their hands. The medical evidence supports the prosecution case. There is sufficient material on record to connect the applicants with the alleged crime. Hence the applications are rejected. . While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case without being influenced by the observations made in this order.
