vks 1 APPLN 2425 OF 2010.sxw IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2425 OF 2010 Vishal H.Shinde ... Applicant Vs. The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent Mr. S.G. Shirsat, for the applicant. Mrs. Geeta Mulekar, APP for the respondent State. CORAM : R.C.CHAVAN, J. DATE : 2nd SEPTEMBER, 2010. P.C. 1. The applicant who is husband of victim seeks enlargement on bail on the ground that the case of prosecution rests only on circumstantial evidence. 2. The applicant was staying away and his wife was residing with her parental home, since the applicant was allegedly involved in a rape of another girl, in which case he was acquitted. The applicant is alleged to have called his wife to meet him at Hadapsar on mobile phone. Victim went to Hadapsar and thereafter she was missing. Her naked dead body was subsequently found, which was identified that of the victim. Applicant was arrested at the instance of brother of the victim. The victim’s golden ornaments were seized from the applicant’s house and some clothes of victim were found near the crematorium. The learned counsel for the applicant states that finding vks 2 APPLN 2425 OF 2010.sxw of ornaments at applicant’s house is irrelevant since the victim was his wife and ornaments were bound to be at applicant’s house. The clothes found near crematorium have been described differently than the clothes in which the victim is stated to have left. 3. This plea has to wait till the trial and it will have to be decided by the learned Judge with reference to the evidence. At this stage, it cannot be said that the applicant is entitled to be enlarged on bail. The application is, therefore, rejected. 4. The learned Judge of Trial Court shall expedite the hearing of the case and shall dispose the same as far as possible within a period of six months. [ R.C.CHAVAN, J. ]
