PER COURT :

1.

2.

Heard Mr. S.S.Panale, learned Counsel for the

2 Cr.Apln. 1630.2015 applicant and Mrs. V.A.Shinde, the learned A.P.P. for respondent - State.

3.

The date of incident is 12/02/2015. The occurrence is at 11.30 p.m. F.I.R. was lodged on 13/02/2015. The injured is first informant. According to F.I.R., on 12/02/2015, first informant along with his friend Pravin Kuber were proceeding from Nageshwarwadi to his house by motorcycle, that time near Zhashi Rani chowk, 4 - 5 persons were making assault on one unknown person. Therefore, first informant and his friend Pravin tried to intervene in the said quarrel. Upon that, the persons who were making assault, started assaulting first informant and his friend. A person who was holding 'Gupti', has made assault on the thigh, buttock and the shoulder of the first informant. Thereafter, other persons called assailant as Sambhaji Bhale and thereafter they ran away.

4.

Thus, it is clear from the F.I.R. that the role is ascribed against Sambhaji Bhale and not against the present applicant.

5.

Further, learned A.P.P. has fairly stated that though charge sheet is not filed, the investigation is already over and the formality of filing charge sheet only remained. She further stated that there is nothing incriminating available against the present applicant. There is no recovery at his instance. Thus, further continuance in the custody of the present applicant is not required.
