CORAM: V.C.DAGA, J. DATED: 24th June 2008. DATED: 24th June 2008. DATED: 24th June 2008. P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: ---- ---- ---- . Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in connection with C.R.No.131/2007 registered with Lonikalbhor Police Station, Pune for the offences punishable under sections 395 and 341 of Indian Penal Code. 3. During the course of hearing, I was taken through the test identification parade and seizure memo to connect the present applicant with the alleged offence. According to the learned A.P.P., there is no other material other than this. In these circumstances, there is hardly any possibility of tampering prosecution evidence. The applicant is already in custody from 6th June, 2007. Investigation is already over. 4. In the aforesaid view of the matter and looking to the material available on record, I am inclined to grant bail to the applicant, subject to the following conditions: (a) The applicant, arrested in connection with C.R.No.131/2007 registered with Lonikarbhor Police Station, Pune shall be enlarged on bail in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one or two local sureties to make up the said amount. (b) The applicant shall report to the concerned Police Station once in a week, i.e. on every Friday between 3.00 to 5.00 p.m. till conclusion of the trial. He shall co-operate with the investigating agency for disposal of the case. (c) The order of bail will be given effect only after the applicant furnishes to the investigating officer the details about his place of residence and address where he - 3 - proposes to stay after he is enlarged on bail. The applicant will not change his residential address thereafter till the conclusion of trial without prior intimation to the investigating officer. (d) The applicant shall not directly or indirectly, make any inducement or threat or pressurise any prosecution witnesses and shall not in any manner tamper with the prosecution evidence. (e) It is needless to mention that breach of any of the conditions by the applicant shall result in cancellation of bail. (f) Any observation made in this order shall not be construed as finding or expression on merits of the case at the time of trial. 5. Application stands disposed of accordingly. JUDGE JUDGE JUDGE
