1 A-421-09.sxw IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION Mhi CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 421 OF 2009 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. OF 2009 Dr. Rajeev Keshav Joshi ... Applicant (Orig. complainant) vs. 1. Shri Anil Shankarlal Nigu ) 2. Shri Santosh Laxman Hajare ) 3. Sau Suvarna Ravindra Hajare ) 4. Shri Sanjay Ganpat Hajare ) 5. Sau. Sunita Santosh Hajare ) 6. State of Maharashtra ).. Respondents Mr. Amber Joshi,Advocate, for the applicant. Mr.Y.M.Nakhwa, APP, for the respondent . CORAM: J.H.BHATIA,J. DATE : 2nd September, 2011. P.C. 1. Heard the learned Counsel for the applicant, who is the original complainant. He seeks to prefer appeal against the order of acquittal in Summary Case No.168/1997 under Sections 341, 504, 506 read with Sec. 34 of IPC passed by the learned J.M.F.C. Karjat. The incident had occurred on 20.3.1997. It appears that at that time there was a dispute about the right of way between the parties and because of that dispute, the incident had occurred. Learned Counsel for 2 A-421-09.sxw the applicant contends that later on, the Mamlatdar had accepted the claim of the present applicant about the right of way. 2. After perusal of the impugned judgment and order of acquittal, I do not see any material on the basis of which it can be said that the said judgment is per-se wrong or perverse and needs interference. In any case, in such matter, no purpose will be served if leave to prefer appeal is granted after 14 years and then to keep the matter pending for 10 to 15 years more. 3. Therefore, the application seeking leave to prefer appeal stands rejected. (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
