Smt.M.H.Mhatre APP for the State. ---- Coram : R.S.MOHITE,J Date : 16th April, 2010 PC CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1767 OF 2010 1 Heard the Advocate for the applicants. The applicants are shown as accused in C.R.No.23/2010 registered by the Nala sopara police station for the alleged offences under Sections 307504, 506, 148, 427, 332, 143, 147 and 307 of IPC. After hearing the Advocate for the applicants since they have been named as persons who were present in the mob by a witness, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail. At the stage of passing of the order, 2 Advocate for the applicants states that instead of inviting observations, his clients would like to surrender and apply for regular bail. In the circumstances, he seeks leave to withdraw this application. Application is dismissed as withdrawn. Applicants will not be arrested till 20.4.2010 to enable them to surrender and apply for regular bail. (R.S.Mohite,J) CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.970 OF 2010 1 This is an application for grant of regular bail. The applicant has been arrested on 24.1.2010 for alleged offences under Sections 307, 353, 332, 143, 147, 427, 504 & 506 of IPC. The incident in question took place on 18.1.2010 and the complaint was filed by MSEB officer on 19.1.2010 alleging that some officers of the MSEB gone to investigate theft of electricity, they were assaulted. I seen the injuries. Though there are injuries on vital part, there is no fracture. Taking into account the fact that the applicant has been in custody for a period of about 3 months, in my view, it would be a case where he may be granted bail. The question as to whether there was any intention to kill, will have to be carefully evaluated. In the circumstances, it is directed that pending his trial in connection with C.R.No.23 of 2010 registered by the Nalasopara police station, the applicant may be released on bail in the sum of Rs.20,000/- with one surety in the like amount subject to the condition that he will report to the Investigating officer once a week on every Monday till the disposal of his trial and will remain present on all dates of his trial in the court unless exempted. Application disposed off. (R.S.MOHITE,J) 3 4
