DATED : 28TH APRIL, 2009. DATED : 28TH APRIL, 2009. DATED : 28TH APRIL, 2009. P.C.: . Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in C.R.No.I-102 of 2009 of Naupada police station, Thane. The said crime has been registered against the applicant and others for having allegedly committed an offence punishable under sections 364-A, 384, 385, 323, 506 r/w 34 of IPC. 3. Mr.Jadhav, learned counsel for the applicant at the outset invited my attention to two orders dated 31st March, 2009 (criminal application No.1405 of 2009) and 2nd April, 2009 (criminal application No.1531 of 2009) passed by this court and submitted that there is no difference between the role attributed to the present applicant and the role 2 2 2 attributed to the applicants in those applications. I have perused both the orders and the other material placed before the court. Mr.Saste, learned A.P.P. does not dispute the statement made by the learned counsel for the plaintiff insofar as parity is concerned. There is no recovery at the instance of the applicant nor any specific role is attributed to him. Keeping that in view and considering the orders dated 31.3.2009 and 2.4.2009 I am inclined to enlarge the applicant on bail on parity. Hence the following order: . The applicant be released on bail in the sum of Rs.5,000/- with one or two sureties in the like amount subject to the condition that the applicant shall report to the concerned police station on every Saturday between 10 am and 11 am till filing of the charge-sheet and thereafter on the first Saturday of every month between 10 am and 11 am till conclusion of the trial. . While passing this order I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case uninfluenced by the observations made in this order. . The application is disposed of. 3 3 3 (D.B.Bhosale, J.) (D.B.Bhosale, J.) (D.B.Bhosale, J.)
