the relatives of the victim girl from their house.

¶17

Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners has submitted that the act of subjecting the prosecutrix to sexual intercourse is attributed to the son and the brother of the petitioners respectively. The petitioners are only alleged to have not taken up the issue with the main accused Danish. It has also been submitted that perhaps correct statement has not been made by the prosecutrix. In support of the aforesaid contention, it has been stated that the occurrence took place on 21.06.2018 but the FIR has been lodged on 11.07.2018 without any explanation for such delay. It has also been brought to the notice of this Court that the victim girl in her 164 statement has not stated anything about the petitioners. Other grounds also have been urged on behalf of the petitioners viz. the age of victim has been assessed to 18 to 19 years by a team of doctors and that earlier, the daughter of petitioner no. 1 was subjected to rape by the relatives of the victim girl of the present case.

¶18

In any view of the matter, considering that the petitioners are only alleged to have thrown away the persons who had come to complain against Danish and that they do not have any criminal antecedents, they are directed to be released on bail, in the event of their
