Mr. J.B.Jaiswal, A.P.P. for the respondent-State. CORAM : Prasanna B. Varale, J. DATED : 26 th Octo ber , 2010 . Heard. By this application the applicants are seeking pre-arrest bail in Crime No. 41/2010, registered with Police Station, Khandala, Tah. Pusad, Dist. Yavatmal for the offences punishable under Sections 420 and 109 of Indian Penal Code. On 04/10/2010, this court has granted ad-interim protection to the applicants till filing reply by learned APP, on conditions to cooperate with the investigating agency. The ad-interim protection was extended on two occasions. Today, learned APP has filed affidavit in reply in the Court through ASI Shri Aslam Khan Burankhan, P.S., Khandala. It is stated in the said affidavit that in view of the orders passed by this Court dated 04/10/2010, the applicants were called upon in the police station and they attended the police station on 11/10/2010. When the I.O. informed them for recording their statements, the applicants just refused and told the I.O. that they will come after ‘Dashera’ festival. It is further stated in the affidavit that when the applicants were again contacted on their mobile phone, they again refused to 2 attend the police station on the ground that if they attend the police station, they will be arrested. In view of above, it appears that the applicants have misused the liberty granted to them. The approach and attitude of the applicants certainly do not deserve any further protection and as such the application deserves to be rejected. In the result, the application is rejected and disposed of as such. JUDGE Diwale
