1 1260.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1260 OF 2010 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO.1095 OF 2004 Pandurang Vinayak Deokar ...Petitioner Versus The State of Maharashtra ...Respondent ...... Mr.Daulat G.Khamkar for Petitioner. Ms.S.V.Gajre, A.P.P. for State. ...... CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND R.C.CHAVAN, JJ. DATED:- FEBRUARY 11, 2011. P.C. 1. This is second application for bail. However, the limited ground on which this Application is pursued is that the applicant has already undergone substantial sentence period of 6 years, 2 months and 23 days. The finding of guilt recorded by the Court below is on the basis that the incident was premeditated as is contended by the learned A.P.P. If it is so, actual sentence undergone of six years cannot be said to be good enough to consider release on bail of the applicant. The Appeal pertains to year 2004 which is pending hearing. Presently, the Appeals of 2002 followed by Appeals of 2004 falling under category convicts in jail are already notified 2 1260.10 in the final hearing board. If the Appeal preferred by the Applicant does not reach for hearing by end of January, 2012, the applicant may approach afresh for release on bail, if so advised. That request will be considered on its own merits as and when such application is made. 2. Application disposed of on the above terms. (R.C.CHAVAN, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.)
