IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION
BAIL APPLICATION NO.793 OF 2023
Atish Dagdu Dhage ] .. Applicant vs. State of Maharashtra ] .. Respondent
Mr.Pratik Kalantri, for the Applicant. Ms.P.N. Dabholkar, APP for the State.
CORAM : BHARATI DANGRE, J
DATE : 20th March, 2023.
P.C.
1] As far as merits of the Application are concerned, on perusal of the material collated in the charge-sheet, I am inclined to derive at the same conclusion which I had expressed in my order dated 03.08.2021 upon which, the Application was withdrawn.
2] The learned counsel for the Applicant would submit that the Applicant is incarcerated since 2009 and progress of the trial is at snail speed.
3] That may be so, but this ground can be independently pressed into service by him.
But since, I have permitted the earlier Bail Application to be withdrawn, on coming to a similar conclusion prima-facie being satisfied about the commission of offence by the Applicant, the present Application cannot be entertained.
In the wake of above, Bail Application is dismissed.
