Mr. S.R. Deshpande, Advocate for Respondent. .......... CORAM : P.D. KODE, J. DATED : JANUARY 19, 2011 Heard. By the present application, the applicant accused arrested on 19.11.2010 in connection with Crime POR No. 3915/2010 registered with Bramhapuri Forest Office for commission of offence under Sections 9 and 51 of the Wild Life Protection Act, has prayed for bail. The applicant is said to be presently lodged in Chandrapur Jail in connection with the said crime. The prayer for bail is objected by the learned counsel for the respondent on the count of there being sufficient material showing her involvement in commission of offences. It is also urged that in the event of applicant being released on bail, there is likelihood of herself fleeing away and/or tampering with the prosecution evidence. Since care can be taken 2 about the grounds upon which the objection is taken, the prayer for bail will deserve consideration as the offences alleged are not punishable with death or imprisonment for life and no other circumstance is pointed for not exercising discretion in favour of grant of bail. Hence the order. The applicant is directed to be released on bail in connection with Crime POR No. 3915/2010 of Bramhapuri Forest Office subject to furnishing a PR bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with two sureties in the like amount and subject to the conditions of the applicant :- (i) attending the Assistant Conservator of Forest, Chandrapur on every Monday for a period of three months and as and when called by the Assistant Conservator of Forest, Bramhapuri in connection with the investigation in progress; (ii) staying at the address mentioned in the application and not changing the same without the permission of the Court, (iii) not indulging in any activity of threatening, intimidating or harassing the prosecution witnesses and (iv) not committing any offence while being on bail granted vide this order.
