1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL BAIL APPLICATION NO.997 OF 2011 Lala @ Hiralal Mantha Mote, .. Applicant. Vs State of Maharashtra .. Respondent. Mr.Vivek Salunkhe, for the applicant. Mr.Rajesh More, APP, for the respondent. CORAM: J.H.BHATIA,J. DATE : 29/07/2011 PC: Heard the learned counsel for the applicant and the learned APP for the respondent. The earlier Bail Application No.5659 of 2010 filed by the applicant was rejected vide order dated 14.2.2011 after dealing with the merits of the case. There is no change in the circumstances thereafter. The learned counsel for the applicant contends that two other accused have been granted bail. However, their role appears to be restricted to the assault with kicks and fist blows, while the present applicant had stabbed the deceased with a long knife. Therefore, merely because the other two accused have been granted bail by the Sessions Court, this applicant cannot be released on the principle of parity. Therefore, the bail application stands rejected. (J.H.BHATIA, J.) T 2 3
