IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 591 OF 2008 Mohammed Yunus Mulliseth Khan & Anr... ......Petitioners V/s State of Maharashtra ... ...... ......Respondent. Mr.Ganesh Bhujbal h/f Mr.Prakash Naik, Adv. For the petitioners. Mr.J.P.Yagnik, APP For the respondent. CORAM: A.P.DESHPANDE, J. 26/3/08 PC: Heard finally by consent of both learned advocates for respective parties. By the present petition the petitioners are seeking modification of order passed by the Sessions Judge dated 13.2.08 imposing a condition for release of the petitioners on bail in the sum of Rs.50,000/- each with one surety in the like amount or two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/-. The trial Court passed the order on 29.11.2007. However the petitioners not being in a position to furnish bail in the sum of Rs.50,000/- each they have not been released and are still in jail. Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that as the petitioners are very poor they are unable to furnish bail in the sum of Rs.50,000/- on account of financial hardship and they are languishing in jail for about four months. Thus a limited prayer is made that the bail amount be 1 reduced from Rs.50,000/- to Rs.10,000/-. Having regard to the totality facts and circumstances I deem it appropriate to modify the order passed by the Additional Sessions Judge dated 29.11.07 which is confirmed by the Sessions Judge vide order dated 13.2.08. In the result writ petition is partly allowed. Petitioners are directed to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.10,000/- each with one surety in the like amount, subject to a further condition that the petitioners shall report J.J. Marg police station every day between 5.00 p.m. to 8.00 p.m. and make themselves available for investigation/interrogation until further orders. 26.3.08 2
