By this application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure the applicant is seeking bail in Crime No.234 of 2023 registered with Dattawadi Police Station, Pune, for the offences punishable under Sections 307, 326, 506, 143, 144, 147, 148, 149 of Indian Penal Code r/w Sections 4 and 25 of Arms Act r/w Sections 37(1) and 135 of Maharashtra Police Act.

This Court has granted bail to the co-accused Raj @ Vicky and Kunal vide order dated 13th June 2024 and 21st August 2024 in MANISH SURESHRAO THATTE Date: 2024.10.21 18:03:24 +0530 MANISH SURESHRAO THATTE Criminal Bail Application No.1929 of 2024 and Criminal Bail Application No.1621 of 2024 respectively. Learned counsel for Applicant is seeking parity with the co-accused who have been

2 of 3 8.BA.3389.2024.doc released on bail. The same is being opposed by learned APP on the ground that there is one antecedent against Applicant u/s.302. In reply, learned counsel for Applicant points out that Applicant has been acquitted in the said offence.

4.

In the above referred backdrop, since the role of the co-accused who have been released on bail and the role of Applicant is same, I am of the opinion that parity will apply. Hence, I pass following order :

ORDER
