The applicants were granted bail by the Sessions Court vide order dated 27.8.2007.

The applicants thereafter appeared before the court and applied for cancellation of non bailable warrant issued against them. That application was, however, rejected and the appilcants were taken into custody. Thereafter they filed application for bail which came to be rejected by the Sessions Court vide order dated 26.3.2009, and hence the applicants are before this court. Mr.Patil, learned counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants undertake to appear before the trial Court on every date of hearing in future, and if for any reason they are not in a position to appear before the court they will file appropriate application through their advocate well in advance, seeking exemption. Their undertaking is accepted. Having considered overall facts and circumstances of the case and the undertaking given by the applicants through their advocate this application is allowed. . The applicants are directed to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount subject to condition that they shall report to the concerned police station on every alternate Saturday between 10 am and 11 am and also attend the hearing of their case before the trial Court.
