Mr.S.S.Pednekar APP for the State. Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Date : 14.08.2006. PC 1. This is an application for grant of bail. The applicant alongwith 7 other persons are shown as accused in C.R.No.55/2006 registered by the Kothrud police station for alleged offences under Sections 302, 143, 147, 148, 149 & 324 of IPC. It appears that deceased Balasaheb Kasbe was assaulted by these accused who are all named in the FIR. Admittedly, the present applicant was not assailant and was not member of the unlawful assembly. The FIR indicates that these persons : 2 : have independent motive as the deceased has assaulted one Chandrakant who was the brother of the accused by name Nana Kudale. The deceased has also given shelter to one Santosh. As far as the present applicant is concerned, there is no recovery against him and there is no material except the statement of the co-accused to implicate him. This fact is confirmed by the APP. In the circumstances, I am inclined to grant bail. It is therefore, directed that pending his trial in connection with C.R.No.55 of 2006 registered by the Kothrud police station, the applicant may be released on bail in the sum of Rs.20,000/- with one surety in the like amount subject to the condition that he will report to the I.O. of Kothrud police station twice a month on every 1st & 3rd Mondays of the month till the conclusion of the trial. Application stands disposed off. : 3 : (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J)
