Mr. P.L.Sapkale, adv. for the Applicant. Mr. Y.M.Nakhawa, APP for the respondent/State. CORAM : J.H.BHATIA, J. DATE : 17th December, 2011 PC : 1 Heard the learned counsel for the parties. 2 Applicant seeks to be released on bail in crime no.73 of 2011 registered with Hill Line police station, Ulhas Nagar for the offences punishable under Section 302 r/w section 34 IPC. 3 Prosecution case, in brief is that, the deceased Babu and the accused persons namely, Raju and Laddu used to work in the compound of building site of Gunwant Sheth at Kailas Colony. Quarrel used to take place between the deceased Babu on one hand and the accused Raju and Laddu on the other hand. On 16.11.2010 also such quarrel took place. There was telephonic message from Kattu that some quarrel had taken place at building site. Thereafter the supervisor Dipak went to the site. 2 When he reached there, two other witnesses Ramkeval and Shailesh were also present. They found that the gate of the compound was closed from outside. They opened it and entered into the compound and found that Babu was lying in pool of blood with several injuries on his head, eyes, face, nose, etc. and the accused Raju and Laddu were absent. Applicant before the Court is accused Raju. Another accused Laddu is said to be absconding. 4 P.M.Report reveals that there were several injuries on the head, face, etc. and there were also fractures of parietal bone. Death had occurred due to infracranial hemorrhage and orbital injuries. It appears that blood stained clothes of the accused were seized from him. As per the C.A. Report, blood on the clothes of the accused is of ‘B’ group and blood on the clothes of the deceased is also of ‘B’ group which shows that blood of the deceased was on the clothes of the applicant. Taking into consideration the circumstantial evidence and the gravity of the offence, in my opinion, it will not be desirable to grant bail to the applicant. 5 Therefore, the application stands rejected. 6 The learned counsel for the applicant makes a request that the trial of the case may be expedited. The trial Court shall expedite the trial 3 and dispose off the case as early as possible and preferably within six months from the date of receipt of the order. (J.H.BHATIA, J.)
