DATE : 28th APRIL, 2026.

P. C. :

1.

By this Application, the Applicant is seeking regular bail in connection with C.R. No. 08/2025 dated 12/01/2025 registered with Kadegao Police Station, District: Sangli for offences punishable under Sections 109, 85, 333, 351(3) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, IRESH MASHAL 2023.

Learned counsel for the Applicant submits that the alleged incident has taken place at the spur of the moment. Investigation is completed and charge-sheet is filed and even the injured is discharged from the hospital. There is no progress in trial. Considering the the length of incarceration, the Applicant deserves 1 of

to be admitted to the bail.

3.

Per contra, learned APP opposed the Application submitting that the act of the Applicant is rather pre-meditative and considering the number of injuries inflicted on the injured by the Applicant with a sharp weapon and injuries being grievous one, disentitles the Applicant to be admitted to the bail. 4.

Upon considering the submissions of the learned counsel for the Applicant and learned APP and perusal of material on record, prima facie it appears that the alleged incident has occurred at the spur of moment. Investigation is completed and charge-sheet is filed.

5.

Considering the number of witnesses which the prosecution proposes to examine, there is every likelihood that the trial will take its own time to commence and conclude in the near future. In that view of the matter, I am persuaded to exercise the discretion in favour of the Applicant.

6.

So far as the apprehension expressed by the learned APP about tampering prosecution witnesses can be adequately taken care by imposing stringent conditions.
