Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner in Writ Shubhada S Kadam Page 3 of 5
Petition No.383 of 2023 states that although investigation was transferred from Wadala Truck Terminal Police Station to Economic Offences Wing (General Cheating), Mumbai, ('EOW') vide order dated 14th March 2024, no steps have been taken by the EOW to arrest the absconding accused - Sandeep Kandalkar. He further states that infact Sandeep Kandalkar was granted default bail as police of Wadala Truck Terminal Police Station failed to file charge-sheet within the statutory period. 2.
The concerned Investigating Officer - Shri Pradip Sawant, Sr.PI, attached to EOW, Unit VI, Mumbai, is personally present in Court. He does not dispute the fact that the accused - Sandeep Kandalkar was summoned to the EOW Office, however, he did not respond to the summons. He states that since the accused - Sandeep Kandalkar is absconding, appropriate steps would be taken by the Office of EOW to have his bail cancelled and appropriate steps would be taken in this regard including issuance of LOC.
