IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1391 OF 2007 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. OF 2007 The State of Maharashtra )..Applicant Versus Raghunath Dagadu Shimpi )..Respondent ---- Mr.Rajesh More APP for the applicant/State. ---- Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Date : 13.08.2008. PC 1. Heard learned APP for the applicant/State. This is an application for leave to appeal. On perusing the judgment and record, I find that the acquittal is based upon cogent and acceptable reasons. In so far as demand is concerned, witnesses for the prosecution have accepted that the accused persons have already given a negative report and forwarded the papers to the General Manager alongwith the negative report prior to the date of alleged demand. A theory of demand is therefore, dis-believed. As regards the receiving of the amount, it was the prosecution case that the Complainant put the marked money in an envelope and kept it in the drawer. The Court has held that the accused had left the premises to get the file and there was an : 2 : opportunity to plant the money. In my view, not a fit case to interfere in an appeal against acquittal. Hence leave refused. Consequently, appeal papers to be filed. Application stands disposed off.
