1 APPLN 2098 OF 2010.sxw vks IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2098 OF 2010. Shahaji Madane, .. Applicant -versus The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. WITH CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.2880 OF 2010. Shahaji Madane , .. Applicant -versus The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. Mr Kuldeep Patil with Prashant Hagare, for the Applicant. Mrs. S. D. Shinde, APP for the Respondent State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: 21st October, 2010 P.C. 1. These two applications are filed by the same applicant in two separate crimes of dacoity and robbery. The applicant is alleged to have driven vehicle in which dacoits travelled. The complicity of the applicant came to the light from co-accused on 2 APPLN 2098 OF 2010.sxw 20.10.2009. The police spotted the jeep which was being driven by applicant in which co-accused were travelling. In the jeep stolen property was found. Learned counsel for the applicant rightly points out that in none of the reports given by the first informant there is reference of use of jeep while committing dacoity or robbery. He submitted that the applicant may have just picked up the passengers for travel who happened to be persons involved in dacoity and so it cannot be said that there is applicant’s complicity in the dacoity or robbery. Considering the fact that the applicant’s jeep was not found on the two occasions of actual commission of robbery/dacoity, but only once later on when the property stolen in dacoity and robbery was recovered and found, the possibility of applicant’s not actually participating in dacoity or carrying out the dacoits in his jeep may have to be examined at the trial. The investigation is complete and the chargesheets have been filed. In view of this, the applicant arrested in CR No.150 of 2009, registered at Tembhurni Police Station for the offences punisbale under Sections 394 read with 34 of the Indian Penal Code, and also in CR No. and 76 of 2009, registered at Malshiras Police Station, for the offences under Sections 393, 394, 397 of the Indian Penal Code, be released on bail on his furnishing PR Bonds in the sums of Rs. 50,000/- in each of crime with one or more solvent sureties in the aggregate sums of Rs.50,000/- each of the two crimes, on the 3 APPLN 2098 OF 2010.sxw condition that the applicant shall report at Tembhurni Police station first and third Sunday of every month during 10.00 a.m. to 1.00 p.m., and at Malshiras Police Station on 2nd and fourth Sunday of every month between 10.00 a.m., to 1.00 p.m., till the trial is over.
