Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's order of directions and Registrar's orders ..................................................................................................................................................................... Mr Chandrakant Jagdale, Advocate for applicant Mr J B Jaiswal, APP for respondent CORAM : A.P. BHANGALE, J. DATED : 17 th September, 2010. Learned Advocate representing the applicant submitted that the charge-sheet is already filed and applicant be released on bail on the ground that the Panchanama relating to spot is silent about presence of daughter of deceased as a eye witness. According to prosecution, mother of the accused as well as daughter of the accused were eye witnesses to the incident and furthermore there is dying declaration recorded by Special Executive Magistrate Nagpur imputing clear active role to the applicant that he had demanded money from his wife in order to consume alcohol and when his wife refused, the applicant had taken the tin of rockel, poured it on her person and set her ablaze with the help of a matchstick and took to his heels. Apart from first information report, there is prima facie material pointing involvement of the applicant in accusations for offence punishable u/s 302 IPC and, if released on bail, the 2 possibility of applicant tampering with evidence of eye witnesses cannot be ruled out, as well absconding in order to frustrate the trial. 2. For the foregoing reasons, no case is made out for grant of bail. Application is rejected. However, the trial Court shall endeavour to dispose of Sessions Case No.225/2010 as early as possible.
