3.

Further, looking to the pendency of the Criminal Revision Application before this Court, it is clear that in near future, it is not possible to take final hearing of the present Revision Application. Further, the jail sentence imposed upon the applicant is for limited duration. He has already paid the fine amount.

That leads me to pass the following order :

(1) The present Criminal Application is hereby allowed.

(2) The substantive jail sentence imposed upon the applicant by the learned 8th Judicial Magistrate First Class, Dhule on 23/06/2008 in S.T.C.

During the pendency of the present Criminal Revision Application, the applicant Nandkishor Ghanshiram Prajapt shall be released on bail, on he executing P.R. Bond of ` 10,000/- [Rupees Ten Thousand only] with 2 solvent sureties of like amount.
