CORAM : SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J. DATED : 21st March, 2007. DATED : 21st March, 2007. DATED : 21st March, 2007. P.C.: 1. Heard the learned Advocate for the Applicant and the learned APP for the State. 2. The applicant was granted bail by the learned Adhoc Additional Sessions Judge, Pune by order dated 14.12.2006. While granting bail one of the conditions imposed on the applicant is that :- "Applicant-Shri John @ Steephen Dass Swand shall be released on bail on his executing P.R. bond of Rs.50,000/- with one solvent surety in like amount and cash security of Rs.10,000/- on following conditions." ..(2).. 3. The learned Advocate for the applicant states that the applicant is a labourer and is having a very poor final background. Hence, the applicant has not been able to furnish the requisite surety and cash security of Rs.10,000/-. The learned Advocate for the applicant, therefore, prayed that the condition of depositing cash security amount may be deleted and the surety amount may be reduced. 4. It is seen that though the applicant was granted bail on 14.12.2006, till today he has not been able to avail bail as he has not been able to fulfil the above condition. 5. Looking to the above facts, I am inclined to grant some relaxation to the applicant. 6. The order whereby the applicant was directed to be released on bail on his executing P.R. bond of Rs.50,000/- with one solvent surety, is modified and the applicant to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one or two sureties to make up the said amount. As far as depositing the cash security ..(3).. amount, as imposed by the learned Sessions Judge, the said amount is reduced to Rs.5,000/-. 7. Application is disposed of accordingly.
