CORAM:- URMILA JOSHI-PHALKE, J.

DATED :- NOVEMBER 14, 2024 By this application, the applicant is seeking bail as he came to be arrested on 20/02/2024 in connection with Crime No.48/2024 registered with Police Station Koradi, District Nagpur for the offence punishable under Sections 307, 336, 286 and 506(B) of IPC. 2.

The accusation against the present applicant is on the basis of report lodged by the Vivekkumar Shivkumar Lal on an allegation that the informant is the brother-in-law of the present applicant and there was a previous dispute between them. On 19/02/2024, present applicant attempted to kill the informant by licking the domestic gas. On the basis of the said report, police have registered the crime against the present applicant. 3.

Learned Counsel for the applicant submitted that due to the previous dispute, the applicant is implicated falsely. Now, the investigation is completed and charge-sheet is filed, further incarceration of the applicant is not required. In view of that, he be released on bail.

4.

Learned APP strongly opposed the application and submitted that initially also there was an attempt to eliminate the entire family of the informant. If the applicant/accused is released on bail, he would make similar type of the attempt to eliminate the informant and his family. Considering the same, the application deserves to be rejected.

5.

I have heard learned Counsel for both the parties. Perused the recitals of the FIR from which it reveals that out of the dispute between the informant and the present applicant, there was an attempt by licking the domestic gas to kill the informant. As far as the injuries are concerned, there was no such incident occurred and no injuries are sustained by the informant. However, considering the apprehension raised by the learned APP, the application deserves to be allowed by imposing certain conditions. Accordingly, I proceed to pass the following order:

(i) The application is allowed.

(ii) The applicant - Ranjan Ganeshprasad Shaw in connection with Crime No.48/2024 registered with Police Station Koradi, District Nagpur for the offence punishable under Sections 307, 336, 286 and 506(B) of IPC, be released on bail on executing P.R. bond of Rs.25,000/- with one solvent surety in the like amount.

(iii) The applicant shall stay out of the Nagpur district and shall enter into the Nagpur only for the purpose of attending the proceedings before the Sessions Court, Nagpur.

(v) The applicant shall furnish his detailed address along with address proof before the Sessions Court where he is intending to reside after he is released on bail.

(vi) The applicant shall attend the proceedings before the Sessions Court without seeking any exemption unless ther e are exceptional circumstances.

6.

The application is disposed of.
