Court's or Judge's Orders. Mr A.K. Bhangde, Adv for applicants Mr A. Parihar, APP for State Coram : A.P. Bhangale, J Dated : 1.9.2010 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. Applicants are seeking pre-arrest bail in Crime No. 69/2010 registered with Police Station, Deori, District Gondia for the offences punishable under Sections 468, 471, 448, 186 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code. 2. It is alleged that the applicants made an attempt to evade the Border Entry Fees and prepared forged receipt for the purpose of cheating and using it as a genuine one. 3. Learned APP submits that the matter is under investigation and Investigating Officer has to seize registration book and tax book from the applicants as also other fabricated documents. He submits that custodial interrogation of the applicants is necessary. On this, learned counsel appearing for applicants fairly submit that applicants would be ready and willing to surrender for a limited 2 period in order to enable the Investigating Officer to complete investigation and thereafter they may be released on conditional bail. 4. In the light of aforesaid position and in view of the ruling in Abdul Hamit Ansari & ors v. State of Maharashtra reported in JT 2000 (7) SC 390, I pass the following order. 5. If the applicants would surrender before the Investigating Officer within one week from today, I direct the Investigating Officer to complete the interrogation of the applicants as expeditiously as possible and at any rate, within three days from the date and time of arrest, on obtaining appropriate remand order from the Court concerned. On completion of interrogation and recovery of material object, if any, applicants shall be released on bail on their executing PR Bond in the sum of Rs. 15,000/- each with one surety to the satisfaction of the arresting officer. They shall make themselves available for investigation as and when required. Applicants shall attend the trial after submission of charge-sheet unless specifically exempted by the Court. Applicants shall abide by the conditions, inter-alia, that no threat shall be exerted on any of the witnesses nor any evidence be tampered with and that they will leave their fixed address along with telephone/cellphone number (if any) to the Investigating Officer as also the Court concerned and shall communicate change therein, if any, in future forthwith. It is made clear that if any of the applicants misuses the bail, this Court permits the investigating officer or even the aggrieved person to move the Sessions Court or this Court under Section 439 (2) Cr.P.C. for cancellation of bail. With these observations, application stands 3 disposed of. Hamdast granted. Judge. joshi
