ORDER
1.
The complainant has filed this application under Section
439(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, for cancellation of bail
2
38-ACB-110-22.odt
granted to respondents No.2, 3 and 4 by Additional Sessions Judge,
Bhusawal, District Jalgaon, in Criminal bail Application No. 592 of
2021, dated 30.09.2021.
2.
Heard the learned counsel for the applicant/complainant and
the learned counsel for the respondents No.2 and 4/accused and
the learned A.P.P. for the respondent/State.
3.
The learned counsel for the complainant/applicant has
vehemently argued that the learned Sessions Court, while granting
bail, failed to consider the allegations levelled against respondent
Nos. 2 to 4. The recovery of weapons at the instance of
respondent Nos. 2 to 4 has also been not considered. The victim
was assaulted on vital part. The aggressive acts of the applicant
coming to the house of the complainant and assaulting him with
weapon has also not been considered. The order granting bail is
without appropriate reasons and without considering the material
on record. This Court has cancelled bail granted by the same
Judicial Officer to the co-accused in similarly situated case.
4.
The complainant had challenged the said order before the
Honourable Supreme Court. However, the said special leave to
bail was also dismissed. Heavily relying on the view taken by this
Court cancelling the bail of this applicant, the learned counsel for
the applicant would submit that the same principles would apply
to the case in hand. He prayed to allow the application.

38-ACB-110-22.odt
5.
The learned counsel for respondent Nos. 2 to 4 has
vehemently argued that the learned Additional Sessions Judge has
considered the material placed on record. The case diary was also
perused. The learned Judge, while granting bail, has given reason
that the statements of material witnesses have been recorded.
There were no criminal antecedents against the respondents. On
perusing the application, it appears that there are sufficient
grounds to release them on bail. The order granting bail does not
reflect that there was non application of mind and without
considering entire material placed before the Court.
6.
This Court, in the case the State of Maharashtra Versus
Mayur Sarangdhar Patil and another, in ACB/222/2021 dated
06.06.2022, filed by the complainant, has discussed the law as
regards the principles granting bail.
7.
In the above case filed by the complainant, this Court held
that the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Bhusawal, has not
considered the material that was placed before him in the charge-
sheet under Section 173 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, while
deciding the bail applications filed by the respondents. However,
instead of carrying out desired exercise, he has adopted a cryptic
way. This Court also referred to the ratio laid down by the
Honourable Supreme Court in the case of Brijmani Devi Versus
Pappu Kuma
