IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 140 OF 2006 CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 140 OF 2006 CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 140 OF 2006 1. Bhagwan Sopan Sasane. 2. Pravin Bhagwan Sasane. ...Applicants V/s. The State of Maharashtra. ...Respondent Mr.J.B. Kotecha for Applicants. Ms.M.M. Deshmukh, APP for State. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J. DATED : JANUARY 30, 2006 DATED : JANUARY 30, 2006 DATED : JANUARY 30, 2006 P.C. :- P.C. :- P.C. :- . Learned Counsel for the applicants submits that the applicant no.1 had preferred an application earlier for bail in this Court which was rejected on 6th December, 2005, however, this fact was not known to him. Counsel for the applicants is permitted to delete the name of applicant no.1 from the present application. Leave to amend. 2. Heard learned Counsel for the applicant and learned APP for the State. 3. The applicant no.2 was arrested alongwith his father Bhagwan for the offence punishable under Sections - 2 - 302, 201 read with 34 and Section 404 of the IPC for having committed the murder of the third wife of Bhagwan who was step-mother of applicant no.2. Admittedly, there is no direct evidence against the present applicant except the circumstantial evidence. The application for bail filed by Bhagwan have already been rejected who appears to be the main accused in the present case. Since the chargesheet has been filed, in my view, the applicant need not be detained indefinitely as the trial is not likely to be over though the case is already committed to the Sessions. 4. In view of this, the applicant be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5000/- with one or two sureties in the like amount. The applicant shall report to Dehuraod Police Station twice in a month. . The application is disposed of in the above terms. (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.)
