This is an application preferred through Central Prison Bangalore (Karnataka) where the applicant is presently lodged in connection with some other offence. Said application is dated 6.4.2009. It was placed before this Bench and certain directions were given for appointment of the Advocate to defend him. As such, learned Advocate Ms Jyoti Kranti is appearing for the applicant today, instructed by another lawyer by name D.P. Jakhade (appointed) to argue on the 2appln-2296-09 matter. 2. The applicant is facing charge for the offence punishable under Section 489 (a) (b) and (c) of I.P.Code as to his involvement and dealing in counterfeit currency notes.
