1 FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2512 OF 2009 (Hiraman Laxman Patil vs. The State) -------------------------------------------------- Office notes, office Memoranda of Court’s or Coram,appearances, Court’s orders Judge’s or directions and Registrar’s orders Orders Mrs. S.S.Jadhav, & S.R.Patil, Advs., for the applicant. Mr. P.M.Shinde, A.P.P., for respondent/State. ... CORAM: K.U.CHANDIWAL, J. DATE: 14/8/2009 P.C.:- 1. Heard learned Counsel for the accused/applicant. 2. The accused/applicant is a Cotton Grader, however, retired and then re-appointed. Then he has given bond. It is alleged that, he has, between the period from Nov.,2008 to March, 2009, allowed procurement of the cotton, though it had reached higher level of moisture whereby the Corporation is put to losses. 2 3. It is alleged, it was the deliberate omission of the accused/applicant that he did not carry his duties diligently and purchased the cotton with more moisture, more than the permissible limits. 4. The accused/applicant has contended, the moisture meter furnished to him by the Federation was faulty and he has requested Federation to provide another moisture meter but it was not supplied. 5. This is apparently an afterthought and at this stage it cannot be considered. The contention that he has returned the moisture meter on 25.3.2009 to the Peon by virtue of the acknowledgment, however it does not indicate that the Peon Yamunabai Gulab Chaudhari has indeed received such moisture meter because it is only a letter showing sending two moisture meters. In the situation, the contention as to recovery of 3 register and of the moisture meter from the accused/applicant seems to be correct. No protection. Consequetly, application seeking bail is rejected. (K.U.CHANDIWAL) JUDGE ... agp/2512-09
