CORAM : S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 25th September 2006 PC : 1. The applicant is arrayed in C.R. No.28 of 2006 registered on 5th March 2006 with Gadhinglaj Police Station for offences punishable under section 302 r/w 34 of I.P.C.. 2. Upon statement of the grand son of the deceased, applicant along with others were named as accused and later on arrested on 28th March 2006. Investigation is complete. Charge sheet is filed. 3. Application for bail was rejected twice on ((-2-)) the ground that the applicant has also been named in the incident by the eye witness, the grand son of the deceased. 4. I have perused the statement with the assistance of Shri Mundargi and the learned APP. It is stated by the grand son that the applicant along with others had surrounded the deceased. A knife blow was administered on the neck by the other accused Ravi Ingale. Recovery is also at his instance. 5.
