Mr M.M. Nerlikar, Addl. Public Prosecutor for respondent CORAM : N.W. SAMBRE, J.

DATE : 6th January, 2016 ORDER :

By the order impugned dated 24th November, 2015, regular bail granted to the applicant by learned Additional Sessions Judge-2, Ambajogai, in connection with C.R. No.153 of 2011, registered with Ambajogai City Police Station, Ambajogai, vide order dated 20th October, 2011, passed in Criminal Application No.445 of 2011, came to be cancelled and non bailable warrant was issued against the applicant as he had failed to attend the Sessions Trial.

2.

After the applicant was arrested and produced before the Sessions Court, learned Additional Sessions Judge has rejected the application for grant of bail, as the applicant has consistently remained absent before the learned Sessions Court, which has resulted in protracting the trial.

criap6619.15 (2) 3.

Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the applicant, upon instructions, undertakes that from here onwards the applicant shall remain present before the Sessions Court on each and every date of hearing. 4.

In view of above undertaking, in my opinion, it will be appropriate to order release of the applicant on bail. Thus, the following order :- The applicant be released on bail, in connection with C.R. No.153 of 2011, registered with Ambajogai City Police Station, Ambajogai, for offences punishable under sections 354, 324, 504, 506 read with sec. 34 of the Indian Penal Code and section 3 (1) (xi) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act (registered as Special Case No.1 of 2012), on furnishing P.R. Bond of Rs.50,000/- with one surety in the like amount.

It is made clear that two consecutive defaults on the part of the applicant, in attending the Sessions Court, shall result in cancellation of bail.

Criminal Application stands allowed in above terms. (N.W. SAMBRE, J.) amj
