¶10

Petitioner has been made accused in connection with Rajrappa P.S. Case No. 151 of 2023 for the offences registered under Sections 376 and 382 of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the Court of learned Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Ramgarh.

¶11

The petitioner is alleged to have raped his sister-in-law.

¶12

Attention has been drawn towards the informatory petition filed by the petitioner before the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate, Rajauli, Nawada stating therein that he has apprehension that a false case will be instituted against him, as he was having serious dispute with his wife. It has also been stated in the said petition that his wife has deserted her matrimonial home, as she was not willing to reside with him.

¶13

It was submitted by the learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioner that the petitioner has filed a complaint case against the informant of this case, his wife and in-laws.

¶14

It appears that the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nawada has called for a report from the Officer-in-Charge, Rajauli Police Station on the complaint petition filed by the petitioner. The Officer-in-Charge has reported that on enquiry, local witnesses have stated that the wife of the petitioner has refused to reside with the petitioner, as she did not want to live with her father-in-law and mother-in-law. The Officer-in-Charge has also reported that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case.

¶15

In view of the aforesaid facts, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Ramgarh, in connection with Rajrappa P.S. Case No. 151 of 2023.
