He is chargesheeted for four C.R.s under Section 307 of IPC and also of committing bodily offences and forming unlawful assembly. In this background, when the brother of the applicant was present in the Court made a specific statement which was recorded that he shall move himself from Ulhasnagar City and continue to reside in Nashik, his liberty was secured, subject to the stipulation that he shall not set his foot in jurisdiction of Ulhasnagar and Thane district and shall continue to reside in city of Nashik.

The applicant is now posing a difficulty to stay outside Ulhasnagar by stating that he has been dutifully abiding these conditions, which can be no ground to relax the said condition as the statement was particularly made that he shall continue to stay in Nashik till the conclusion of the trial. Application is rejected.
