The Applicants seek anticipatory bail in Crime No.36 of 2011 registered with Chandgad Police Station, Kolhapur under section 420 read with section 34 IPC on a report lodged by one Pundlik Appa Patil. 2. The FIR was lodged by one of the farmers alleging that the Applicants had failed to make payment of price of sugarcane supplied by the farmers to the Applicants. On a report lodged by - 2 - 747.11 the Special Auditor Crime No.10 of 2011 was registered in respect of the same case. In that crime, by an order dated 22.8.2011 in Anticipatory Bail Application No.681 of 2011, this Court has already granted anticipatory bail in view of the fact that the amount of the sale proceeds of the sugar recovered by the Collector is much more than the amount to be recovered to the farmers. Learned counsel for the Applicants also points out that in this case the trial Court had actually granted anticipatory bail on 29.7.2011 with the condition to appear before the police on 2.8.2011 but the Applicants could not appear before the police on that day because another FIR being C.R.No.10 of 2011was also pending. As they did not appear the Sessions Court rejected their request to extend the date for appearance. 3. In view of the above, Application is allowed and in the event of arrest in Crime No. 36 of 2011 registered with Chandgad police - 3 - 747.11 station District Kolhapur under section 420 read with section 34 IPC the Applicants be released on their executing P.R. of Rs.15,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount with condition that they shall make themselves before the police as and when required for the purpose of interrogation and investigation and shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence.
