Thereafter, appellant started making physical relations with the victim in different hotels at Shahjahanpur, Lakhimpur Kheri etc. against her wishes.

It is vehemently submitted that no detail of any hotel was provided by the victim. It is also submitted that the delay of two years in lodging the F.I.R. has also not been explained. It is next submitted that neither any mobile of the appellant was sent to F.S.L. nor any call detail, as alleged in the F.I.R. related to the threat dated 19.01.2023, was recovered. It is lastly submitted that the court below has not considered all these facts while rejecting the bail application and the trial is also not going on. It is, thus, submitted that the impugned order is liable to be set aside and the appellant, who does not have any criminal antecedent and is in jail since 01.03.2023, is entitled for bail. It is also submitted that the appellant is ready to cooperate in the trial.
