1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.1205 OF 2010 Pradeep Namdeo Gondhali )..Applicant Vs. The State of Maharashtra )..Respondent ---- Mr. S.V. Marwadi i/by V.V. Katti for the applicant. Mr. Y. S. Shinde APP for the State. ---- Coram : R.S.MOHITE,J Date : 29th March, 2010 PC 1 This is an application for grant of bail. The applicant is shown as an accused no.29 in C.R.No.I-171/2009 registered by the Shildaighar police station, Thane for alleged offences under Sections 302, 307, 325, 324, 504, 506, 143, 147, 148 & 149 of the IPC. The incident in question has taken place on 29.9.2009. Statements of 8 eye witnesses have been recorded immediately on the next day i.e. 30.9.2009. The statements categorically mention that the present applicant was armed with the sword. On perusing the post mortem notes, I find that there are several injuries by sharp instruments and they include stab injuries and incised injuries. It was sought to be contended that the applicant was not named in the FIR. Though the FIR was by eye witness he has mentioned that there were 15 other persons who were present. Subsequently name of the present applicant was given in all the statements. It was sought to be contended that the High Court had granted bail to 14 persons. I have perused the order which has been annexed. In none of the orders any 2 person who has been named by the eye witnesses on the next day and who alleged to have carried a sword has been granted bail. Bail has been granted for altogether different reasons. Not a fit case to grant bail. Hence, application is rejected. It is made clear that the observations made in this order will not be used by the trial Court at the stage of trial. (R.S.MOHITE,J) 3
