jpc ba564-11.sxw 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL BAIL APPLICATION NO. 564 OF 2011 Jayshree @ Mangal Subhash Lature @ Durge... Applicant Versus The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent Mr. P. G. Badole, for the applicant Mrs. S. D. Shinde, APP for the State CORAM:- A.M. THIPSAY, J. DATED :- 7th July, 2011. P.C. : 1. Heard Mr. Badole,the learned advocate for the applicant and Mrs. Shinde, the learned APP for the State. 2. I have gone through the application and the annexures thereto. It is clear from the F.I.R that the basic allegation against the applicant and her husband ( who is co-accused-accused no.3-in this case) is that they failed to handover the property of the society, namely "Jayshree Magas Vargiya Yantramag Audhyogik Utpadak Sahakari Sanstha Maryadit, Solapur", to the liquidator and have misappropriated the same by privately disposing it of. 3. I find that the applicant was the secretary of the said society at the material time and her husband, the aforesaid accused No.3 was the jpc ba564-11.sxw 2 the chairman of the said society. The husband of the applicant is already in custody. Considering that the husband of the applicant was the chairman of the said society, prima facie, the major responsibility of the alleged wrong will be on the husband i.e. accused no.3. It can be reasonably inferred that the role of the applicant in the matter is likely to be rather passive. 4. In any case, the applicant is in custody since 27th November, 2010. The trial has not even commenced. The applicant is a woman. Her case for bail, therefore, should be viewed rather sympathetically. 5. The application is allowed. 6. The applicant is ordered to be released on bail in the sum of Rs. 1,00,000/-(Rupees one lakh only) with one surety in like amount or two sureties in the sum of Rs. 50,000/- each. (A.M. THIPSAY, J.)
