Mr.Ashok Kumar Singh, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. SONI SHRIVASTAVA ORAL ORDER 02-05-2025
1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.
2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Naanpur P.S. Case no.418 of 2024 registered under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 64, 352, 351(2), 3(5) of B.N.S, 2023.
3. As per the prosecution case, the informant states that on 25.05.2024 at about 11:00 p.m. while she was sleeping in her varanda, accused Md. Faiyaz, came and established physical relations with her. She further states that accused assured her that he loved her and subsequently the victim also became pregnant. When the informant's parents came to know about the same, they went to petitioner's house but the family members of the petitioner ousted them from house.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.5227 of 2025(3) dt.02-05-2025 2/3 petitioner has been falsely implicated in the case. The allegations against the petitioner are false and concocted. He further submits that it would be evident from bare perusal of the F.I.R that specific date of occurrence has been given as 25.05.2024 and the parents also got knowledge about the same on 21.08.2024 and yet the F.I.R was lodged after due thought and deliberation on 26.08.2024. He further submits that the very allegation that the petitioner had come to her house while she was sleeping and committed rape upon her does not inspire confidence at all. It is a case of love affair between the petitioner and the informant and the same would also be demonstrated by the fact that victim stated in her statement recorded under Section 183 of the B.N.S.
S, that she wants to marry the petitioner since they were in love relationship since quite long. It appears from the present petition that the petitioner is also ready to marry the informant and he has also filed a petition dated 05.10.2024 before the Court of learned S.D.J.M, Pupri stating the same. During investigation it has surfaced that the informant has refused to get herself medically checked up which would be evident from paragraph 32 of the case diary. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent and undertakes to cooperate in the case/trial.

5. The application for anticipatory bail is opposed by learned A.P.P. for the State.
6. Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case and also considering the fact that it is a case of consensual relationship between two adults, it is directed that the petitioner above named, who has no criminal antecedent in the event of his arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a period of four weeks, be released on anticipatory bail in connection with Naanpur P.S.
