Jijabai Pandurang Kale 5. Mandabai Mahadu Kale 6. Pandurang Mahadu Kale 7.Dasharat Mahadu Kale 8.Rajendra Uttam Kale ...Applicants Vs. The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent --- Mrs. Manjula Rao i/b. Smt. Smita Mane for Applicants Shri Rajesh More, APP for State ---- CORAM: V.M. KANADE J. DATED 13TH FEBRUARY, 2009 P.C. 1. Heard the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Applicants and the learned APP for the State. 2. An offence has been registered against the Applicants with the Ambad Police Station, Dist. Nashik for the offence punishable under sections 143, 147, 149, 307, 324, 323, 504, 506 of the Indian Penal Code and section 135 of the Bombay Police Act. 3. So far as the Applicant Nos.1 to 5 are concerned, they are women and no particular role has been attributed to the present Applicant Nos.1 to 5. There is an admitted position that there is a dispute between the Complainant and these Applicants pertaining to the compensation, which was awarded by the District Court in the land acquisition reference. The order passed by the District Court is further challenged and the appeal is pending in this Court. The allegation is that since the Complainant also claimed the compensation, she was assaulted by the Applicants. 4. At this stage, it will not be possible to consider whether the injury which was caused to some of the Complainants is grievous injury or simple injury. However, since no particular role has been made against the Applicant Nos.1 to 5, in my view, continued detention of these Applicants is not necessary. So far as, the Applicant Nos. 6 to 8 are concerned, they shall, however, apply for regular bail and the application be heard as expeditiously as possible. 5. Taking into consideration the fact that the detention of the Applicant Nos.1 to 5 is not necessary since only one weapon has been recovered. Under these circumstances, the Applicant Nos.1 to 5, in the event to their arrest in connection with C.R. No.30 of 2009, be released on bail in a sum of Rs.5,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount. The Applicant Nos.1 to 5 shall report to the concerned police station, as and when called. 6. The application filed by the Applicant Nos. 6 to 8 is, however, rejected. 7. Application is disposed of.
