Mr. K. H. Anandani, Advocate for applicants.

Mr. M. J. Khan, A.P.P. for non applicant-State. CORAM : V. M. DESHPANDE, J.

DATED : DECEMBER 04, 2019 Heard Mr. Anandani, learned counsel for applicants and Mr.Khan, learned A.P.P. for non applicant-State. Applicants are apprehending their arrest in connection with Crime No.552/2019 registered with Police Station, Khadan, Akola, Tq. Dist. Akola for an offence punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 149, 336, 307, 324, 294, 506 of the Indian Penal Code.

As per the prosecution case, incident is dated 13.10.2019. In the said incident, two First Information Reports were lodged. First in time was lodged by Sau. Kalpana having Crime No.552/2019, in which the present applicants are claiming pre arrest bail and another was lodged by Pushpa having Crime No.553/2019, in which some of the eye witnesses in Crime No. 552/2019 are accused. As per the prosecution case, first informant Kalpana, after religious function which was

held in the house of her brother Balu, was proceeding in the locality for inviting women for dinner and when she was in front of house of one Charita, co-accused Sugat Shirsat, Siddharth Shirsat and Mahadeo Shirsat were standing and they laughed at her. They also used abusive language. Therefore, as per the prosecution case, Siddharth slapped and assaulted her by fists blows. When she fell down, Siddharth tried to strangulate her. As per prosecution case, present applicants were also present.

The only allegation against the present applicants, as it could be seen from the submissions of the learned A.P.P., is that they were members of the unlawful assembly. However, the fact remains that the main accusations about strangulation are against Siddharth.

In that view of the matter, I pass the following order.
