MP 1 ABA778_11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION NO. 778 OF 2011 1. Sunil Dagdu Gund 2. Sangeeta Rajendra Mane 3. Jayashree Shivaji Chatke 4. Santosh Shivaji Omane 5. Shivaji Bhagwan Patil 6. Prabhakar Tukaram Avatade ... Applicants Versus State of Maharashtra ... Respondent Mr. A. P. Mundargi, Senior Counsel i/b. Priyal G. Sarda, Advocate for Applicants. Shri. Y. S. Shinde, APP for the Respondent State. CORAM : J. H. BHATIA, J. DATE : 21ST SEPTEMBER 2011 P. C. : Heard the learned Counsel for the parties. 2. The learned APP contends that some of the accused persons have forged and signed documents impersonating themselves as different persons, while, the real persons have never signed the documents in support of the Change Report. According to him, custodial interrogation is required to ascertain who had actually put the signatures in the name of different persons and also to seize the rubber stamps used on the consent letters so prepared. 3. The dispute pertains to the change report of a Trust and the complainant and his wife appear to be interested in that Trust. In the F.I.R., in all, 41 persons are made accused including the Assistant Charity Commissioner, lawyers and some officers from the Charity Commission. The only allegation is that certain documents are forged just to support the change report. There is no allegation of misappropriation of any Trust property nor any breach of trust. Whether the MP 2 ABA778_11 documents are genuine or forged will have to be considered by the concerned Charity Commissioner while considering the change report. Custodial Interrogation of the applicants does not appear to be necessary for the purpose of investigation of this case. 4. Therefore, the anticipatory bail granted by way of ad-interim relief, on 14.09.2011, by this Court is hereby made absolute. (J. H. BHATIA, J)
