3. The prosecution case, as per the First Information Report, is that on 11.07.2018 in the morning at about 09:00 A:M, the informant's daughter aged about 14 years went to school, but did not return. Upon inquiry, the informant came to know that petitioner has kidnapped his daughter for immoral activities.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.7624 of 2025(2) dt.27-03-2025 2/3 petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case due to the fact that petitioner and the victim girl was having love relationship which was not to liking of the informant. He next submits that the statement of girl has been recorded under Section 183 B.N.S.S. in which she has stated that she went with the petitioner on her free will and performed marriage at Rajasthan. Referring to Annexure-2, learned counsel submits that out of wedlock between petitioner and victim a child has born which is evident from the birth certificate annexed at Anneure-2.

Having regard to the submissions made on behalf of the parties and taking into consideration the fact that both petitioner and the victim have solemnised marriage which is evident from the statement made by the victim under Section 183 B.N.S.S. and out of wedlock one child has born, I am inclined to grant the petitioner privilege of anticipatory bail.
