Washim Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, Appearances, Courts orders or directions Court’s or Judge’s orders and Registrar’s orders. Mr. A. M. Ghare, Advocate for the Applicants Mr. C. N. Adgokar, A.P.P. for the Non-Applicant CORAM : U.V. BAKRE, J. DATED : 11.10.2011. 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. This application for bail has been filed by the two applicants, who have been arrested on 12/08/2010 in Crime No. 296/2010 registered at Police Station, Washim for offence punishable under Section 302 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. The case of the prosecution is that on 05/08/2010 at about 1.30 p.m. the applicants and their father namely Baban Jadhav assaulted Sakharam Jadhav with iron pipe, fist blows and kicks. The said Sakharam received bleeding injuries and died on the same day. 4. Learned Advocate Mr. A. M. Ghare submits that more than a year has passed and still the applicants are in jail though the co-accused Baban Jadhav has already been released on bail. 2 5. It is seen that the present applicants had previously filed Criminal Application No. 2018/2010 for bail and they sought for leave to withdraw the said application with liberty to renew the prayer for bail in the event of the trial being not over by the end of December 2011. The said application came to be disposed of as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for. The trial Court was informed to decide the sessions case arising out of Crime No. 296/10 of Police Station Washim as expeditiously as possible and in any event by the end of December, 2011. 6. As per the said order, the applicants are bound to wait at least till the end of December, 2011 in order to renew the prayer for bail. Because of above, I am not inclined to consider the present application at this stage. 7. Hence, the application is rejected. JUDGE Punde.
