N. Barhate Patil, Advocate for Applicant. Ms. R. P. Gour, APP for the State. CORAM : R. M. JOSHI, J. DATE : 8th SEPTEMBER, 2026. PER COURT : 1. At the outset, learned APP drew attention of the Court to the fact that previous application for pre-arest bail has been rejected by this Court by order dated 11.12.2025. According to her, the said application was rejected after filing of charge-sheet. She claims that for want of change in circumstances, the present application is not tenable. 2. Learned Counsel for Applicant submits that the Applicant is not the prime accused. He, however, does not dispute the fact that after filing of the charge-sheet, order dated 11.12.2025 came to be passed in Anticipatory Bail Application No. 2188/2025. - 2 - aba1292.26.odt 3. Admittedly, the previous bail application came to be rejected by allowing its withdrawal after filing of charge-sheet. As such, it cannot be said that there is any change in the circumstances to entertain the fresh application for pre-arrest bail. Hence, on this ground itself, the application deserves to be rejected and accordingly stands dismissed. ( R. M. JOSHI, J.) dyb
