Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. By this application filed under section 438 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, the applicant is seeking anticipatory bail in connection with C.R.No.54/2008 registered with Walchandnagar Police Station for the offences punishable under sections 143, 147, 149, 324, 337, 504, 506 of the Indian Penal Code on the basis of complaint lodged by one Shri Tanaji Chavan. 3. As per the prosecution case, the alleged incident has happened on 25th March, 2008 at 7.00 p.m. The applicants got themselves admitted in the hospital at 8.30 p.m. on the same day. It appears from the hospital record that they absconded, rather ran away from the hospital without taking discharge from the hospital under medical advise to avoid their arrest. 4. On being noticed, the doctor has produced medical papers and also made a statement before this Court that so far as discharge certificates issued to the applicants are concerned, the same were issued after having received the treatment charges from the relatives of the applicants much after disappearance of the applicants from the hospital. 5. In the aforesaid view of the matter, if the pre-arrest bail is granted, the possibility of applicants either jumping the bail or tampering with the prosecution evidence and not co-operating with the investigating agency cannot be ruled out. 6. In the result, application is rejected. JUDGE JUDGE JUDGE
