in nature. Both the parties are neighbour and due to previous enmity the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. It is further submitted that the petitioner has not committed any offence as alleged in the FIR and the informant is not an eye witness of the said occurrence. The petitioner is in custody since 14.09.2024 and has got no criminal antecedent.

¶15

Learned APP for the State and learned counsel for the informant have vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner and submits that there is allegation of committing rape with a “dim-witted” girl against the petitioner. Witnesses of the case diary have also supported the case of prosecution. It is further submitted that the victim has supported the allegation in her statement recorded under Section 183 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. Hence, the petitioner does not deserve the privilege of bail.

¶16

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, nature of accusation and the gravity of the offence, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

¶17

The prayer is rejected. The trial Court is directed to expedite the Trial.
