DATE :

23 JULY 2025 P. C.:

1.

Heard learned counsel for the parties. My attention is drawn to an order dated 18 June 2025 by which the Applicant was protected by imposing certain terms and conditions. Mr. Narwade, learned APP was to take instructions pursuant to the passing of the said order as also set out in the order dated 9 July 2025. Mr. Narwade has done so. He would submit that the Applicant has complied with the terms and conditions of the said order. He has co-operated with the investigation. There is no breach of the order dated 18 June 2025. There is nothing adverse on prima facie case against the Applicant brought on record by the prosecution pursuant to the order dated 18 June 2025.

2.

Mr. Barlota, learned Advocate for the Applicant would also undertake that as far as deposit of Rs.1,46,500/- is concerned as recorded in the order dated 9 July 2025, he shall do so within the stipulated time. Such amount shall be deposited with the Registry of the Court. The earlier order

dated 9 July 2025 directing depositing the said amount with the Trial Court stands modified and to be read accordingly.

3.

Considering the above facts and circumstances, in my view, the order dated 18 June 2025 deserves to be confirmed by passing the following order:-
