1. This is the First bail application filed under Section 483 of the Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 for grant of regular bail to the applicant who has been arrested in connection with Crime No. 03/2026 registered at Police Station : Mardarpal, District Kondagaon (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 137(2), 87, 64 and 65(1) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and Section 6 of the POCSO Act.

¶16

¶17

2. The prosecution story in brief is that prosecutrix’s father lodged a complaint at Police Station Mardapal alleging that on 10.01.2026, prosecutrix, who was minor, left her home without informing anyone. Consequently, a missing persons’ report was lodged on 15.01.2026 on the basis of suspicion that the minor has been lured and abducted by some unknown person. Police registered offence and during the course of investigation, applicant was arrested.

¶18

3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is a 22-year old innocent boy who has been falsely implicated in the present case. He further submits that prosecutrix and her parents have been examined before the learned Trial Court where they have not supported the case of prosecution. He also submits that the applicant has no criminal antecedents and he is in jail since 12.03.2026, conclusion of the trial may take some time, therefore, he prays for grant of regular bail to the present applicant.

¶19

4. On the other hand, the learned State counsel opposes the bail application of the present applicant and submits that the present applicant/accused lured the minor girl and sexually assaulted her, therefore, the applicant is not entitled for grant of regular bail.

¶20

5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary.

¶21

¶22

6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and from perusal of the evidence of the victim recorded before the learned Trial Court, it appears that victim has not supported the case of prosecution and denied the suggestions put forth by the public prosecutor. Also considering the fact that the applicant has been in jail since 12.03.2026, the trial is likely to take sometime for its conclusion, I am of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail in this case.

¶23

7. It is directed that in the event of the applicant executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs. 50,000/- to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court, he shall be released on bail on the following conditions:-

¶24

(a) he shall make himself available for interrogation by the police officer as and when required;

¶25

(b)he shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such fact to the Court; and

¶26

¶27

The observation made hereinabove is for the purpose of deciding this bail application only, the learned trial Court shall decide the case on its own merits.
