Heard learned APP for the State. 2] This application for bail is filed through the jail. The appeal preferred by the applicant is already admitted. 3] Learned APP submits that there is direct evidence of PW-1. Considering the fact that the appeal is already admitted, we would assume 2 APPA.1119/2010 that prima facie case is made out by the applicant which was the basis for admission of the appeal. Notably, the applicant is in jail since August, 2002. He has already undergone over eight years of actual imprisonment which is more than 50% of the sentence period, if applicant is to be prematurely released on completion of fourteen years of actual imprisonment. Besides, appeal pertains to the year 2006 which is unlikely to come up on board for about four more years. In as much as, the appeals pertaining to year 2002 of convicts in jail are presently listed for final hearing. Besides, it is noticed that the applicant has marriageable daughter and there is no earning family member. 4] Considering the overall view of the matter, and in the interest of justice, we direct that the applicant be released on bail on the following conditions:- i] Applicant shall furnish bail bond of Rs.10,000/- with one or two sureties of the like amount; ii] The applicant shall appear before the nearest police station in the locality in which he would ordinarily reside; iii] While on bail, the applicant to appear in the nearest police station on first Monday of each English calender month between 10.30 a.m. and 12.30 p.m. iv] The applicant shall furnish his latest address of residence to the local police station and also give 48 hours advance 3 APPA.1119/2010 intimation in the event he intends to go out of District- Thane, and furnish details of the place and contact number where he intends to go, if any.
