Mahesh Vikas Dhamal v. the State of Maharashtra and Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
In Criminal Application No. 98 of 2012, the Bombay High Court allowed bail for an applicant convicted under Section 376 IPC. The court noted his appeal admitted and reasonable chance of success, especially as the victim's age and lack of evidence of force suggested a potential acquittal or reduced sentence. The court ordered release on bail in the same terms as the Sessions Court.
What did the court decide?
Application for bail allowed. Applicant released on bail in the same terms as before the Sessions Court. Fresh bail bond to be executed.
