Vs. The State of Maharashtra. ..Respondent. Mr. A.V.Chatuphale, Advocate for the Applicant. Mr.S.S.Pednekar, APP. for the State. CORAM : R.S. MOHITE,J. DATED : 28/6/2006. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. This is an application for grant of bail. The applicant is shown as an accused in C.R.No.I/187/2005 registered by Bazarpeth Police Station, Kalyan for the alleged offences under Section-302,307 and 342 of the Indian Penal Code. 2. On perusal of the F.I.R. and Statements recorded during the investigation, it appears that the present applicant was engaged to deceased Shobha who was working in the hospital of Dr. Lokhande. The material indicates that Shobha left the premises of Dr. Lokhande at about 8.00p.m. and at that time she was accompanied by the applicant to her residence. The mother of the deceased by name Lata returned home at about 10.30p.m. and found applicant present at her residence. On seeing her, he assaulted her and ran away. He has been seen by :2: independent witness by name Yunus Mulla while running away from the spot. The F.I.R. discloses that while running away, the applicant has latched the door from outside. Lata raised hue and cry and neighbour Mulla who had seen the youth while running away opened the door which was latched from outside. It was sought to be argued that Lata must have strangulated her daughter because she was opposing engagement of deceased Shobha with the present applicant. Prima facie, that were so then door would not have been latched from outside. In my view, not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Hence, application is rejected. (R. S. MOHITE, J.)
