Chandrakant Chotalal Solanki ...Applicants vs. The State of Maharashtra ...Respondent Shri Parvez Ubharey for the Applicants. Smt.S.D. Shinde, APP for the Respondent-State. CORAM : J.H. BHATIA, J. DATED : DECEMBER 7, 2010 P.C. :- 1 Heard the learned Counsel for the applicants and the learned APP for the State. 2 Perused the FIR and other police papers. It appears that on a report lodged by one Pravin Uttam Thorat, Crime No.257/2010 under Sections 307, 143, 147, 148, 149, 323, 504, 427 IPC has been registered 2 cri.appln 5279-2010 against in all eight persons out of whom five accused were arrested and other three are still absconding. Three accused have filed the application for bail. 3 As per the report, Pravin Thorat was a driver by profession and on 26th September, 2010 at about 3.30 p.m., six persons boarded his car. They had told him that they were to go from Gautam Nagar to Sion to attend a marriage and after the marriage, they were to be brought back. Accordingly, they took the said persons to Gautam Nagar. After they alighted from the car, a quarrel started between those six persons and the people from that locality. To save themselves, Pravin and his friend Sushant tried to escape by the car. As their car failed, they were also assaulted by the people and suffered several injuries. 4 Medical Reports reveal that Pravin and Sushant were injured. Sushant had suffered contused 3 cri.appln 5279-2010 lacerated wound on the head and fracture of left index finger. Pravin also suffered contused lacerated wound on the head, face and neck. No serious injury was suffered by any of them. 5 It appears that a counter case being Crime No.256/2010 for the similar offences was registered on the report by one Tushar Solanki, who is the applicant no.1 in this application. In that case also, about 8 to 9 persons were involved as accused. It appears that no serious injury was caused in any of the two cases. Investigation is already completed, charge sheets are also filed in both the cases. Taking into consideration the above circumstances, I see no reason to refuse bail to the present applicants. 6 The applicants be released on execution of P.R. Bond of Rs.20,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount in Crime No.257/2010 registered at Bhoiwada Police Station with condition 4 cri.appln 5279-2010 that they shall not misuse the bail and shall report at the police station on every Sunday between 11 a.m. and 12 noon for next six months. 6 The application stands disposed of, accordingly.
