The State of Jharkhand ….. Opposite Party
CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANANDA SEN
For the Petitioner : Mr. Prem Pujari Roy, Advocate For the State : A.P.P
2/12.02.2018 Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the State, who opposes the prayer for bail. The petitioner is an accused for allegedly committing offence punishable under Section 366 (A) of the Indian Penal Code.
The victim girl has been recovered and her statement was recorded under Section 164 of the Cr. P.C.
I have gone through the statement of the victim girl which is on record.
After going through the statement of the victim girl, I find that she has left her house on her own will, thus, I am inclined to allow this application. Accordingly, the petitioner, namely, Rajesh Pandit @ Rajesh Kumar Shukla is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned S.D.J.M, Hazaribagh, in connection with Barkagaon, P.S. Case No. 140 of 2017, corresponding to G. R. No. 2319 of 2017.
