The applicant has been arrested on 12th January, 2009 in connection with an offence punishable under Sections 467, 420, 465, 468, 471 read with 34 of the IPC registered vide C.R.No.I-26/2009 by Panchavati Police Station, Nashik. 3. It is alleged that the applicant asked the co-accused to open an account in ICICI Bank on the basis of bogus documents in the name of the complainant. Investigation is still going on, however, the applicant - 2 - has been remanded to Magisterial custody. 4. Taking into consideration the allegations which are levelled against the present applicant and the fact that he is in custody since more than one month, custodial interrogation, in my view, is not necessary since all the documents have been seized. It is an admitted position that after the said account was opened in the complainant’s name, no further steps have been taken by the co-accused. 5. That being the position, the applicant, therefore, be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5000/- with one or two sureties in the like amount. The applicant shall report to the Panchavati Police Station, Nashik, once in a week till the filing of the charge-sheet and thereafter, once in a month. The applicant shall co-operate with the police. 6. The application is disposed of. (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.)
