Contention of learned counsel for the applicant is that though in the F.I.R. the allegation has been made against the applicant for enticing away the daughter of the first informant, the victim girl in her statement recorded under Section 183 BNSS, has specifically stated that she herself left her house, therefore, the applicant has not committed any offence. It is further submitted that charge sheet has been filed in the present case, therefore, there is no requirement of custodial interrogation. The applicant is languishing in jail since 8.10.2025. In case, he is granted bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and would cooperate in the trial proceedings.
