Upon full hearing of the Public Prosecutor, the Complainants Advocate and the 12 persons through Adv. Satya Muley the Sessions Court has granted Anticipatory bail on 03.10.2024. The Sessions Court observed in its bail order that custody of the 12 members from the housing society is not required. The Court observed that collecting 4000 Rs from the complainant, was not an act in isolation. 4000 Rs was collected for a specific purpose from all the members of the society and out of 50 member 49 members have no objection to the amount being collected.
Adv. Satya Muley stated that the said amount was collected from each member by the managing committee to make payment of demand related with N.A tax. Therefore, the Court did not find any substance in the contentions of the prosecution.
The Sessions court also observed that “As regard allegations levelled in respect of offence punishable u/s 500, 504, 509, 426 and concern with the offence punishable under Maharashtra Protection of People from Social Boycott (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act prima facie oral and vague in nature. Job of recording statement of material witnesses is already over.”
Adv. Satya Muley on behalf of the Society members who are accused in the said FIR stated that all the allegations are absurd, false and made from misuse of legal provisions. My clients are of clean antecedents, well repute in the society, working at high positions in corporate fields and other areas. Some of them are retired and are leading a well accomplished life.
The society is well managed, all the records are well maintained and there is total harmony amongst other 49 members of the Society. My clients have sufficient material to prove their innocence and in due course of time such false allegations shall be dealt with full force of law.
The complainant himself is in contravention to the byelaws and the housing society rules, and related points were brought to the notice of the Sessions Court, added Muley.
