CORAM : R. M. JOSHI, J.
DATE : 18TH AUGUST, 2026.
ORDER : . At the outset, learned counsel Ms. Ingale on behalf of alleged purchasers seeks intervention in the present anticipatory bail application. It is contention of the learned counsel for the intervenors that on the basis of sale deed/agreement, the father 2026:BHC-AUG:37161
2 934 cri appln 1346.26 of the present accused-applicants in bail application sold number of plots from land gut No. 630 situated at Chikalthana to them. It is her contention that just like first informant, right, title and interest has been created in favour of the applicants in the subject property. She, therefore, seeks to be heard in the anticipatory bail application.
2.
Learned counsel for the applicants/accused opposes said contention by pointing out that no right, title and interest has been created in favour of the intervenors in the said property. It is his argument that no immovable property above Rs. 100/- is to be sold unless there is a registered sale deed. It is his further submission that even applicants dispute the signature of their father on the said documents.
3. Prima facie, perusal of the documents sought to be placed on record indicate that no right, title and interest of the applicants/intervenors has been created in the subject property. As such they have no right to be heard. Hence application for intervention stands dismissed.
4. As far as application for pre-arrest bail is concerned, the
learned counsel for the applicants submits that first informant has settled the dispute with the applicants. It is his further contention that there was registered sale deed in favour of the informant executed by the father of the present applicants. He supported facts of settlement arrived at with the informant. It is
3 934 cri appln 1346.26 his submission that unlike the intervenors, after hearing the parties, this Court finds that right, title and interest of the informant was created in the subject property.
5.
Learned counsel for the informant on instructions records no objection for granting pre-arrest bail to the applicants. He places on record photo copy of compromise arrived at between the parties. Copy of said compromise is taken on record and marked ‘X’ for identification.
6. Learned A. P. P. though opposes grant of any protection to the applicants, however, she cannot dispute settlement between the parties.
7. Prima facie, perusal of record indicates that as far as informant is concerned, informant was having right, title and interest in the subject property. The property was sold to him by registered sale deed executed by the father of the applicants, which is not so that of intervenors. In such situation, when the dispute is only dispute between informant and the applicants- accused and as they have settled the dispute, this Court finds no reason not to grant protection to the applicants.
8. In the instant crime the entire evidence is in the form of documentary evidence. As such there would be no justification to reject the anticipatory bail application. Hence following order.
