2. Petitioner seeks bail who is in custody since 18.07.2025 in connection with Jalalpur P.S. Case No. 148 of 2025 for the offences punishable under Sections 64(1), 75, 77, 79, 356(2), 351(2) and 351(3) of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 4 and 6 of POCSO Act.
3. According to prosecution case, informant is the father of the victim girl and alleges that in the morning of 17.07.2025, some villagers informed him and showed him a viral obscene video of his daughter who is 14 years old. Upon
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.6572 of 2026(3) dt.09-04-2026 2/3 asking his daughter about the obscene video, his daughter informed him that about six months ago, in the month of December or January when she was alone home, their neighbor Raushan Ansari found his daughter alone in a nearby shelter and sexually assaulted her at knife-point. It is further stated by the informant that the petitioner gave the victim his smart phone and threatened to kill her if she refused to make a nude video of herself and would kill her entire family if she chose to speak about this incident to them. The petitioner forced the victim to make a video of herself and blackmailed her by using that video to sexually assault her time and again. The victim could not speak about this incident to her family members out of fear and states that the victim was pressured into having sex with the petitioner on numerous occasions and when she refused, the petitioner would threaten her by saying that he would make the video viral.
4. Learned Senior for the petitioner submits that petitioner has clean antecedent and is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in the present case. It is further submitted that the allegation as alleged in the FIR is forged and fabricated and the petitioner has not committed any offence as alleged in the FIR.

5. Learned APP for the State, on the other hand, has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submits that victim in her statement recorded under Section 183 of BNSS has fully supported the case of the prosecution and apart from that the date of birth of victim is 22.04.2011 which suggests that as on the date of occurrence the victim was minor.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case that victim in her statement recorded under Section 183 of BNSS has fully supported the case of the prosecution and apart from that the date of birth of victim is 22.04.2011 which suggests that as on the date of occurrence the victim was minor, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail in connection with Jalalpur P.S. Case No. 148 of 2025 pending in the court of learned Exclusive Special Additional Sessions Judge, POCSO, Saran, Chappra.
7. Prayer is refused.
