9crn4673-08 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MUMBAI CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.4673 OF 2008 The State of Maharashtra. ..Applicant. Vs. Sheru Premchand Jinwal and 3 others. ..Respondents. .... Mr.P.S. Hingorani, A.P.P. for the applicant-State. .... CORAM : A.R.JOSHI, J. DATED : 25TH JUNE, 2010 P.C. 1. Heard learned A.P.P. Mr.Hingorani for the State on this application for cancellation of bail granted to the respondents / original accused Nos.2 to 5. They were charged for the offences punishable under Sections 302, 201 read with Section 34 of Indian Penal Code. 2. Initially bail orders were passed sometime in April, 2008 by Adhoc Additional Sessions Judge, Pune mainly on the premise that there was only evidence against the said 9crn4673-08 2 accused persons as that of last seen together with the deceased. Apart from this evidence, there was no material available to the investigation and even at the time of preferring regular bail applications before the Sessions Court. The chargesheet was also filed. Considering the material, the learned Adhoc Additional Sessions Judge, Pune allowed the bail applications and passed orders which are impugned in the present application. 3. Present application is pending since 2008, however till today nothing materialized so far as hearing of the matter is concerned. Infact, it appears that even the respondents/original accused are also not served. It appears that no proper steps have been taken by the State to serve them. 4. Apart from this, even on merits, there is nothing so overwhelming to reverse the order of bail already granted in April, 2008. At the most, the trial in the matter can be expedited, if it has not already started. Hence order :- 9crn4673-08 3 :: O R D E R :: [i] Criminal Application No.4673 of 2008 for cancellation of bail stands rejected. [ii] The concerned Additional Sessions Court, Pune which is seized of the matter shall disposed of the case as expeditiously as possible according to law without being influenced by any observations made in the above order so far as the merits of the case are concerned and the trial be taken as early as possible.
