*1* IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.3035/2009 Satish Subhash Patil and another. ..Applicants -VERSUS- The State of Maharashtra. ..Respondent ............... Mr.K.J.Patil, Advocate for the Applicants. Ms.P.P.Shinde, A.P.P., for the Respondent/State. ............... CORAM: A.P.DESHPANDE, J. Dated 16th September, 2009. PC:- 1 The present Applicants are the original Accused Nos.3 and 5 by name Satish and Sandeep respectively. The Applicants are arrested in Crime No.103/2008 registered with Kavthe Mahankal Police Station, district Sangli under Sections 302, 147, 148, 149 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3 and 25 of the Indian Arms Act. 2 There are two eyewitnesses to the incident in question by names Vikas Jadhav and Vasant Jadhav. The deceased and the said two witnesses had proceeded in Scorpio car to the scene of offence. After halting the car, the deceased Ramchandra got down from the Scorpio car and had proceeded towards Mahankali High School. Initially two witnesses were seated in the car, however, as they heard oral altercation between Ramchandra and the present *2* Applicants and other co-accused, the said two witnesses approached the scene of offence. They witnessed that the Applicant No.2 Sandeep thrown the chilly powder in the eyes of Ramchandra whereas the Applicant No.1 Satish caught hold of both the hands of Ramchandra, at which point of time, other co-accused by name Dnyanya Sutar and Sunya Gujle assaulted Ramchandra on his head with a hammer, on account of which Ramchandra fell down. It is further stated that one Nilya Jagtap had stabbed Ramchandra in his stomach with “kukri”. 3 In view of categorical statements made by the said two witnesses, it is obvious that there is enough material on record to connect the present Applicants with the crime. In my view this is not a fit case to release the Applicants on bail. In the result, the Application is dismissed. (A.P. Deshpande, J)
