2.

By this application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the applicant is seeking bail in Crime No. 599 of 2023, registered with Dindori Police Station, District: Nashik (Rural) for the offences punishable under Sections 307, 341 r/w 34 of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') and Sections 4, 25 of Arms Act, 1959.

3.

Having considered and gone through the charge-sheet more particularly the injuries certificate, it is evident that the by SUNNY ANKUSHRAO THOTE Date:

2024.07.16 15:18:11 +0530 SUNNY ANKUSHRAO THOTE grievous injury which was found on the person of the informant, was on left shoulder. Whereas, if the said injury is considered with

the allegations made against the Applicant namely, the Applicant assaulted the informant by iron rod on his face and other parts of the body, it is prima facie clear that there are no corresponding injuries found on the person of the informant. 4.

As far the grievous injury is concerned mentioned in the injury certificate, it was caused because of the blow inflicted by coaccused Santosh @ Nandu Shankar Salve, by sickle. 5.

In the circumstances, considering the fact that the chargesheet has been filed and further the period of incarceration of the Applicant i.e. about seven months, I am of the opinion that further custody of the Applicant is not necessary. Furthermore, it is to be noted that there are no antecedents against the Applicant. 6.

In the circumstances, as there is no possibility that the Applicant will not be available for trial or he will be absconding, if he release on bail, I pass the following order;
