Dhorde, Advocate for petitioner in Writ Petition No. 584 of 2008. CORAM : P.R. BORKAR,J. DATED : 05.01.2010 ( 2 ) P.C. :- 1. Heard learned advocates for the respective parties. The applicants and petitioner from Writ Petition No. 159 of 2009 states before this Court that they would appear before M.I.D.C. Police Station at Latur for interrogation by Investigating Officer on 22nd, 23rd and 24th January, 2010 in between 12 noon to 5 p.m., instead of appearing on three consecutive Sundays. The learned A.P.P. states that that would serve purpose of Investigating Officer and in case further interrogation is required, then the Investigating Officer would inform the concerned writ petitioners to appear on a particular day as per provisions of law. 2. After hearing all sides and considering the circumstances that the petitioners are resident of Karnataka State and that they have to come a long way to attend Police Station and attending the Police Station on three consecutive Sundays is not convenient, it will be more convenient for them to appear on three consecutive days and face interrogation as may be required by the Investigating Officer. In my opinion, this is a reasonable proposition to ( 3 ) which the learned A.P.P. also agrees. 3. In this view of the matter, earlier order directing the applicants/petitioners to attend the Police Station on three consecutive Sundays is hereby modified and the applicants/petitioners are allowed to appear before the Investigating Officer on 22nd, 23rd and 24th January, 2010 and to make available themselves between 12.00 noon to 5.00 p.m. for interrogation by the Investigation Officer. The Investigating Officer, if subsequently finds that further interrogation is required, may call the concerned petitioners, as per law. 4. Authenticated copy of this order signed by Shirastedar of this Court may be supplied to the learned A.P.P., so that he may inform the order to the concerned Police Station. 5. The Criminal Applications are accordingly allowed and disposed of. [P.R. BORKAR,J.] ( 4 ) snk/2010/JAN10/cra3392.09
