This is an application for bail by only Accused No.1 Smt. Laxmibai Babaram Chikhalkar. She had earlier applied for bail being Application No.616 of 2004 and the same was rejected on 26th March, 2004. 2. In the instant case though the Applicant had engaged a lawyer in the Appeal the present bail application was sent through Jail. As Advocate says that he has no instructions we were compelled to appoint an Advocate from the Panel maintained under the Legal Service Authority. Shri A.G. Toraskar now appears for the Applicant. The only reason now given is health of the Applicant. Considering that the Applicant is committed for an offence punishable (-2-) under Section 302 of I.P.C. merely because her health had suffered will be no ground to release the applicant on bail. The Jail Authorities are directed to provide necessary medical treatment to the Applicant as and when required. . With the above observations, Application for bail rejected. (K.U.CHANDIWAL, J.)
