CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE,J. DATE : 16/04/200 DATE : 16/04/200 DATE : 16/04/2009 PC: PC: PC: 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned APP for the respondent. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in C.R.No.I-15 of 2008 of Jawahar Police Station, Dist-Thane. The said crime has been registered against the applicant for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under section 302 of the IPC. 3. It is the prosecution case that the present applicant mercilessly assaulted his wife with stick, as a result of which she sustained head injury,which ultimately proved to be fatal. I have perused the statements of Govind Bharsat, Kavita Ghute, Janu Waghmare and Chintu Jimbhal. They are all eye-witnesses to the incident and they have specifically stated that they had seen the applicant assaulting his wife with stick. In my opinion, this is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. The application is rejected. . While rejecting the application I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case uninfluenced by the observations made in this order.
