Heard the learned Counsel for the respective parties. 2. The applicants in these two applicants are Police Constable & Police Inspector, who apprehend arrest in connection with C.R.No. I-22 of 2011 for the offence punishable under 2 ABA 305-2011 Sections 7 & 12 of the Prevention of Corruption Act registered with Thane Nagar Police Station & who had participated in demanding a bribe of Rs. 2,00,000/- from the Complainant and then settled it at Rs.1,00,000/-. But the trap however, failed twice. The learned APP has made available for my perusal transcript of conversation recorded by the investigating machinery. She states that voice sample of the applicants have to be taken. That does not require applicants to be in custody. Considering the nature of allegations made, applicants' being in custody for the purpose of investigation may not be necessary. In the event of arrest, both the applicants be released on bail on their furnishing P.R.Bond of Rs.50,000/- each with one or more solvent sureties in the aggregate sum of Rs.50,000/- on the following conditions. (i) The applicants shall report at the Thane Nagar Police Station for interrogation on 20th April, 2011 at 11.00 a.m. and thereafter, as and when required by the 3 ABA 305-2011 investigating officer and shall provide the sample of their voice to the investigating officer. (ii) The applicants shall not, directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade them from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer. (iii) The applicants shall not leave India without the previous permission of the Court. 3. Criminal Applications are disposed of. . The order will remain in force till the trial is over with the only stipulation that if charge sheeted the applicant may furnish fresh bonds before the trial Court in view of the Judgment of the Supreme Court dated 2nd December, 2010 delivered in Special Leave Petition (Cri.) No.7615 of 2009 (Siddharam Satlingappa Mhetre vs State of Maharashtra And Ors.). (R.C.CHAVAN, J.)
