business and he will purchase the diamonds.
Co-accused Uday
Chokasi called informant at Mumbai and thereafter, taken
informant and his friend to a office in Panchratna Building, Opera
House, Mumbai.
In that
office, co-accused Uday Chokasi
introduced co-accused Vinkal Shah and Pravin @ Pappu Jain.
When informant inquired about applicant Dilip Nayani, co-accused
Uday Chokasi informed that as per his instruction, they were
brought in that office. Thereafter, informant showed Rubies with
him to co-accused Vinkal Shah. Said Vinkal Shah showed diamond
in exchange of said Rubies.
However, informant did not like
diamond of Vinkal Shah. Further, said Vinkal Shah called him on
next day i.e. on 01/02/2022. At that time, co-accused Pravin @
Pappu Jain, Uday Chokasi, Khetaram Devasi and Suresh Borda
were present. In their presence, Vinkal Shah showed his willingness

to purchase Rubies of the informant. Meanwhile, other accused
kept the informant busy in talking and systematically packet with
the Rubies was exchanged with the packet of duplicate Rubies.
Thereafter, informant went to Royal Casal Hotel at August Kranti
Maidan. Mumbai. After taking meal, he checked the packet and
noticed that Rubies were exchanged and duplicate Rubies were
kept in the packet. Accordingly, he lodged FIR. Said Rubies are
recovered from co-accused Vinkal Shah.

Learned Adv.Deepak Dere for applicant argued that
muddemal is already recovered. Maximum punishment prescribed
for the offence is seven years. There is no specific allegation who
exchanged packet of Rubies with the duplicate Rubies and that is
matter of trial. There is no allegation against applicant Dilip
Nayani. He was not present at the time of offence. It is requested
to allow the application.

On the contrary, learned APP Abhijeet Gondwal and
investigating officer opposed the application and argued that
applicant alongwith co-accused are working in a Gang. During test
identification parade, informant identified the persons who were
present at the time of exchange of packet. There is criminal
antecedent against the applicant.
It is requested to reject the
application.

Rubies from the informant. However, when informant reached the
office, at that time, applicant was not there. Except this, there is no
other role. There is no any talk between the applicant and the
informant. Considering the role assigned to the applicant, I am
inclined to allow the application. Hence, I pass following order.
