1 8.appa.219-11-apl.983-06 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.219 OF 2011 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO.983 OF 2006 Yuvraj Dilipraj Padipati. ..Applicant. Vs. The State of Maharashtra. ..Respondent. .......... Mr.Mubin Solkar, Advocate for the Applicant. Mr.PA. Pol, Public Prosecutor for the State. .......... CORAM : A.M. KHANWILKAR AND A.R. JOSHI, JJ. DATED : 18th FEBRUARY, 2011. P.C. 1. This Application is for modification of condition imposed in order dated 4th December, 2006, in particular condition No.2, which requires the Applicant to attend Mulund Police Station, Mumbai once in a month on every first Sunday in betwen 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. till final decision of the Appeal. 2. It is submitted on behalf of the Applicant that the Applicant is presently employed at Chalakudy in the State of Kerala and he is finding it difficult to comply with condition No.2 although in the past he has complied the said condition without any default. Counsel for the Applicant on instructions states that the passport of the Applicant has PPD 2 8.appa.219-11-apl.983-06 expired and he has not taken steps to renew the same. This position is placed on record. 3. We gave liberty to the Applicant to consider of reporting to the nearest Police Station where the Applicant is presently residing in the State of Kerala or nearest Police Station around his workplace. However, Counsel for the Applicant submits that the Applicant may not resort to that option as he would risk his employment in the process. If it is so, we cannot help the Applicant as the requirement of reporting to the concerned Police Station once in a month, in our opinion, is not only fair, but, has become necessary in the wake of large number of accused persons are reported to be absconding after being released on bail or furlough leave or parole. When the Court indicated its mind, Counsel for the Applicant submits that in that case the Applicant may be allowed to withdraw the Application. Accordingly, Application is allowed to be withdrawn and disposed of accordingly. (A. R. JOSHI, J.) (A. M. KHANWILKAR, J.)
