¶4

Hon'ble Dr. Gautam Chowdhary,J.

¶5

Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A for the State and perused the record.

¶6

It has been argued by learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. Learned counsel further submits that the incident is alleged to have taken place on 28.09.2022 whereas F.I.R. has been lodged on 29.09.2022 and that there is no plausible explanation of such an inordinate delay. He further submits that the victim has been medically examined on 30.09.2022 wherein it has been found that there is no external and internal injury on the person of the injured and hymen was old torn, thus the doctor opined that there is no use of force. He further submits that there is a contradiction in the statements of the victim recorded under Sections 161 and 164 Cr.P.C. and therefore, no offence against the applicant is made out. Several other submissions in order to demonstrate the falsity of the allegations made against the applicant have also been placed before the Court. The circumstances which, according to the counsel, led to the false implication of the accused have also been mentioned. It has also been assured on behalf of the applicant that he is ready to cooperate with the process of law and shall faithfully make himself available before the court whenever required and is also ready to accept all the conditions which the Court may deem

¶7

fit to impose upon him. He next submits that applicant is languishing in jail since 30.09.2022 having no criminal history.

¶8

Per contra, learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserve any indulgence.

¶9

Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case, submissions of learned counsel for the parties, nature of evidence, and all attending facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, this Court is of the view that the applicant has made out a case for bail. Hence the bail application is allowed.
