1 ABA-945.11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE  CRIMINAL CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.945 OF 2011 {For Anticipatory Bail} 1. Shankar Pandurang Galave 2. Ratanbai Shankar Galave 3. Sunita Panditrao Dodmise .... Applicants Vs. The State of Maharashtra .... Respondent Shri Umesh Mankapure for the Applicants. Ms S.V. Sonawane, APP, for the State. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: NOVEMBER 22, 2011 P.C: 1. This is an application for anticipatory bail by three persons, the first of whom was driving a car bearing No.MH-12- EF-4151 by which he deliberately gave a dash to his cousin's motorcycle bearing No.MH-12- CV-4974 on which his cousin was travelling with his family in order to go to police station to give a report against the applicants about an earlier incident. 2. Considering the nature of the allegations made, since applicant No.1 Shankar 2 ABA-945.11 Pandurang Galave was driving the car, he is not entitled to any protection. As far as applicant Nos.2 and 3 are concerned, they were merely travelling in the car. Therefore, their application for anticipatory bail deserves to be allowed. 3. In view of the above, in the event of their arrest in C.R. No.120 of 2011 of Jat Police Station, District Sangli, applicant No.2 Ratanbai Shankar Galave and applicant No.3 Sunita Panditrao Dodmise be released on bail on their furnishing P.R. Bond in the sum of `10,000/- each with one or more solvent sureties in the sum aggregating to `10,000/- per person on the condition that they shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him/her from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer and they shall not leave the country without the prior permission of the trial Court. 4. This order, insofar as it relates to applicant Nos.2 and 3, shall remain in force till the trial is over with the only stipulation that if charge-sheeted, applicant 3 ABA-945.11 Nos.2 and 3 may furnish fresh bonds before the trial Court in view of the Judgment of the Supreme Court in Siddharam Satlingappa Mhetre v. State of Maharashtra & Ors., reported in AIR 2011 SC 312. 5. The application of applicant No.1 Shankar Pandurang Galave is rejected. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
