The applicant is seeking bail in Crime No.
141 of 2020 dated 01.06.2020 registered with Police
Station Maregaon, Dist. Yavatmal for the offence
punishable under Sections 302 and 201 of the Indian

3.
Perused the application, affidavit-in-reply
filed on behalf of the respondent – State and the
charge-sheet, with the assistance of both the learned
counsel.
4.
At the outset, the murder in the present
crime is the outcome of a sudden quarrel between two
7BA 1084.2020.odt 2
brothers, on the issue of tying of cattles in cattle shed.
The applicant inflicted a single injury on the neck of
his brother. The incident does not appear to be a pre-
meditative murder. The weapon i.e. axe is a readily
available with the people in the village, doing
agricultural work. The post-mortem report also shows
a single injury and the cause of the death is
haemorrhagic shock due to head injury.
5.
The investigation in the case is completed
and chage-sheet is also filed. The prosecution could
not point out any criminal antecedents against the
present applicant. The applicant is agriculturist by
profession.
6.
For the aforesaid reasons, this Court is
inclined to grant him bail on the following conditions :
(i)
The applicant – Vasanta S/o Sitaram Atram
shall be released on bail on executing Personal bond
of Rs. 30,000/- (Rs. Thirty Thousand only) with one
solvent surety in the like amount.
(ii)
The applicant shall not tamper with the
prosecution evidence or issue threats to the witnesses.
(iii)
The applicant to attend the concerned
police station on every first Thursday of each month
7BA 1084.2020.odt 3
between noon to 2.00 pm.
7.
The aforesaid observations are only for the
purpose of deciding this application and the same
shall not come in the way of the trial Court, during
trial.
8.
The Criminal Application is disposed of
accordingly.
