The minor daughter of the informant is said to have been kidnapped by the petitioner with intention to perform marriage with her.

Section 164 Cr.P.C. has not alleged any overt act against the petitioner. Moreover after recovery of the victim on 27.04.2017, F.I.R. was received in the police station on 28.04.2017 at 03:30 PM and was lodged on the same day at same time but the invesetigation of the case started on 27.04.2017 at 09:30 PM which creates serious doubt about the prosecution case. Earlier bail petition of the petitioner was rejected by this court vide order dated 21.08.2017 with liberty to renew his prayer for bail after six months. Petitioner has been languishing in custody since 28.04.2017.
