Judgment
Mr.Vyankatesh Shastry, Advocate for the applicants. Mr.K.V. Saste, A.P.P. for the State. .... CORAM : A.R.JOSHI, J. DATED : 19TH JULY, 2010 P.C.
Heard rival submissions for sometime. Earlier on previous date i.e. on 7th July, 2010 submissions were heard at length and matter was posted today for getting better particulars from the Investigating Officer as to exact role played by the applicants in the alleged offence punishable under Section 306 of Indian Penal Code. 2 26.apln2814-10
Today learned A.P.P. for the State stated that the investigation is already over and the chargesheet is filed. However, he is unable to give any details as to exact role played by the applicants except mentioning that they allegedly assaulted the victim boy when the victim and the minor girl were brought back from Satara. Apparently there are allegations against the applicants that they assaulted the boy when the boy was found having lured the said minor girl and having found that he had taken her away out of her lawful guardianship. On the next day of the assault i.e. on
28.4.2010, the boy consumed some insecticide at the place where his grand-mother was staying. Since then he was unconscious and was under treatment. However, he died on
8.5.2010. Thereafter, belatedly the FIR came to be lodged by the cousin brother of the deceased on 14.5.2010 for the offence punishable under Section 306 of Indian Penal Code.
Considering the rival submissions and considering the allegations against the applicants and the prima facie material 3 26.apln2814-10 as to the boy himself consuming the insecticide at some other place, present application can be allowed releasing all the applicants on bail during pendency of the trial. Hence, the order :- ::
