¶18

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submitted that admittedly, victim/informant was major at the time of occurrence, doing her Ph.D, having all understanding regarding future of her relation and, as such, the allegation cannot be brought within ambit of rape. It is also submitted that petitioner involved in one case of similar nature, where he is on bail. It is further pointed out that the alleged revolver found as air pistol and, as such, Section 27 of the Arms Act is not applicable and moreover same was purchased by informant herself. It is also submitted that the medical report of victim is not suggesting any injury which may suggest that rape was committed upon her. While concluding the argument, it has been submitted that investigation has been completed, for which, charge-sheet has been submitted, as such, there is no chance of tampering with the evidence.

¶19

Learned APP, while opposing the prayer of bail, submitted that victim specifically alleged petitioner to established physical relations, as per her statement recorded under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C., on false pretext of marriage. It is further pointed out that petitioner present himself as an I.P.S. Officer, itself evident of the fact that his intention was of cheating and was never intended to be act upon his promise of marriage. It is further submitted that non-finding of injury or any corroborative medical evidence does not lead to conclusion, ifso facto, that rape was not committed upon informant/victim, as rape is a legal finding, not medical.

Considering the facts and circumstances as mentioned above, as specific allegation of rape against this petitioner, was raised by victim/informant through her statement recorded under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C., where petitioner conduct appears, prima facie , to cheat and not intended to act upon promise of marriage, from very inception, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, at present.

¶23

herewith.
