Business (Proprietor of Sanghavi Trading Co. Pachora), R/o. Pachora, Dist. Jalgaon. Versus 1. The State of Maharashtra .. Respondents 2. The Police Inspector, Pachora Police Station, Pachora, Dist. Jalgaon. Mr. D.B. Thoke, Advocate for the applicant. Mrs. S.D. Shelke, A.P.P. for the respondents. CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J. DATED : 23.08.2010 P.C. :- 1. This is an application seeking bail in anticipation of arrest. ( 2 ) 2. Heard learned Counsel and learned A.P.P. 3. The applicant deals in sale and distribution of Urea (manure). The allegation made against him is that he was allotted 79 M.T. of manure for sale to agriculturist. He lifted only 13 M.T. of Urea and distributed the same on 17th July, 2010; whereas allegedly sold remaining stock to someone by way of birth sell. In other words the main accusation against the applicant is that he had sold 66 M.T. of Urea (manure) in black market for the purpose of earning easy money. It is undisputed that the applicant is having licence to sell the manure and was required to distribute, by way of sale, the manure called “Urea” in accordance with stock made available to him. He was supposed to lift such stock from the godown of R.C.F. Ltd. company. It appears that F.I.R. was registered against the applicant on the basis of information given by Taluka agricultural officer, namely, Jagannath Raghunath Patil. However, subsequently, on 18.08.2010 the same authority has issued a letter to the applicant’s firm/company which purports to show that there was an error committed while showing the stock sold by him. The latter communication dated 18.08.2010 purports to show ( 3 ) that the applicant had sold in all 40 M.T. Urea inclusive of 26 M.T. retail sale and 14 M.T. birth sale. In case the applicant is found to have committed default or is found to be dealing in murky business of selling Urea in black market, the competent authority may take appropriate action for revocation of his licence. 4. Considering the investigation papers and the purport of the communication dated 18.08.2010, the accusation in the F.I.R. appears to be based on mis-information. Under these circumstances, the applicant deserves liberty for limited period. 5. In the result, the application is allowed. The applicant shall be released on bail in the event of his arrest on furnishing of P.B. & S.B. in sum of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) before the Arresting Officer and on condition that he shall attend the concerned Police Station on each Saturday and Tuesday between 10.00 a.m. to 04.00 p.m. for four weeks or till filing of charge-sheet. This protection granted under section 438 of Cr.P.C. will be co-terminus with the filing of the charge-sheet. ( 4 ) 6. The application is accordingly allowed and disposed of. [V.R.
