Mr. M.V. Ghatge, Advocate h/f. Mr. B.N. Gadegaonkar, Advocate for the Applicant Mr. N.H. Borade, APP for the respondent-State ... CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J. DATED : 18TH NOVEMBER, 2010 ORAL ORDER:- 1. The Application is for anticipatory bail. The applicant apprehends his arrest in connection with crime no. 106 of 2010 registered at Degloor Police Station for offence under section 143, 147, 149, 450, 307 r/w. 506 of the Indian Penal Code. 2. Having heard learned Advocate for the applicant and learned APP and on perusal of the investigation papers, it emerges that the informant (2) CRI.APP. 4275.2010 Madan Mukanwar did not receive any serious injury. It is alleged in the FIR that Sham Mukanwar was dealt with a blow of stone on his head. So also, Rohini Mukanwar was assaulted by means of stone. The injuries found on persons of said Sham Mukanwar and Rohini Mukanwar are of simple nature. The election dispute is said to be the reason for the alleged assault. The enmity is double edged weapon. It is worthy to be noticed that the panel of Rajendra Margirwar of which the applicant is a member, was elected in the Village Panchayat election. It is probable therefore, that due to the election defeat, same FIR might have been lodged with aggravated form and allegations. The allegations against the applicant are of omnibus nature. 3. In view of foregoing reasons, arrest of the applicant may not be required for effective investigation. It would suffice if his presence at the Police Station is secured for the purpose of effective investigation. Consequently, it is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on furnishing of bail bonds in sum of Rs.15,000/- (Rs. (3) CRI.APP. 4275.2010 Fifteen Thousand) in the event of his arrest, and on condition that he shall attend the concerned Police Station on each Sunday between 10.00 am. to 2.00 pm. and shall co-operate with the Investigating Officer. He is put under condition to appear before the Investigating Officer for four consecutive Sundays or till filing of the challan/final report, whichever is earlier and not to tamper with the evidence of the prosecution in any manner. The anticipatory bail will come to end on filing of the final report/challan. Application disposed of. Sd/- [V. R. KINGAONKAR, J.] arp
