Case of the prosecution, in brief, is that one year prior to the date of the incident, deceased Aradhana Chowhan and applicant were having a love affair.

private photographs to her uncle and relatives due to which the deceased committed suicide by hanging.

¶17

Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the present applicant is an innocent person and has been falsely implicated. He would further submit that applicant has not sent any threatening messages to deceased. There was love affair between the deceased and applicant which was not accepted by the family members of the deceased. It is submitted that in the WatsApp Chatbox, applicant himself requested the deceased to not take such steps, therefore, he may be enlarged on bail.

¶18

Per contra, learned State counsel would oppose the prayer for grant of bail.

¶19

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case particularly considering the fact that applicant is in jail since 26.8.2021, without commenting anything on merits, this Court is inclined to release the applicant on bail.

¶20

Accordingly, the application is allowed and the applicant is directed to be released on bail on executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- with one surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court. He is directed to appear before the trial Court on each and every date given by the said Court.
