1 FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD Criminal Application No.3069 of 2009. _______________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | _______________________|_______________________________________ 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicants. 2. The anticipatory bail application of the applicants came to be rejected by order dated 4.8.2009. I have gone through the recitals of the FIR. There appears Civil dispute regarding possession of agricultural land bearing Gat No. 186 and Gat No.187. On 6.7.2009, the application was given by complainant Mahendra Dhole to the effect that he was likely to be obstructed and assaulted by the applicants during course of his agricultural operation and sowing in the land. He was provided with Police Bandobast. He was doing the agricultural operation in presence of Police party members and others. The applicants allegedly assaulted and pelted stones on the members of Police party. A Police constable by name Gaikwad was injured. Allegedly, the applicants set fire to the hut of agricultural labour and attempted to assault the complainant and others. The complainant was armed with interim order of the Civil Court regarding injunction issued against the applicants in a Civil suit bearing RCS No.602/2009. 3. Considering the presence of Police witnesses and the fact that the complainant was protected under interim order of the Civil Court, it appears that the acts of the applicants would amount to high-handedness. They were not deterred inspite of presence of Police staff members and tried to assault the complainant, prima facie, indulged in the incident of arson and took law in their own hands. Considering the nature of offences and prima facie case made out, the applicants do not deserve any protection. The application is dismissed. (V.R.KINGAONKAR,J.) Dt.29.09.2009. asp/office/Crapp3069.09
