THURSDAY, 10 th OCTOBER 2024 P.C :

Learned counsel for the applicant has tendered an affidavit of the applicant-Sandeep Bhanudas Kotkar dated 10th October 2024. The same is taken on record. A copy of the said affidavit is served on Ms. Ruksar Kazi, Advocate for the respondent-complainant, who is present in Court. Prima facie, the letter sent by one Shri Pramod Ananda Thube (complainant), appears to be contemptous, inasmuch as, it interferes in the administration of justice and hence, we direct Shri Pramod Ananda Thube (complainant) and his advocate to remain present before us on 15th October 2024. Stand over to 15th October 2024. To be listed at 2:30 p.m. Shri Pramod Ananda Thube (complainant) and 2/3

Shri Shankarrao Vitthalrao Raut (Applicant in APPW/839/2016) to remain present in Court.
