No.26464 of 2025(3) dt.30-07-2025 2/3 Learned counsel for the petitioner also submits that the informant is sister-in-law of the petitioner and she had demanded money from the petitioner but due to non-fulfillment of her demand, she has implicated the petitioner falsely in this case. It is further submitted that medical report of the informant does not support the prosecution case and there is land dispute between husband of the informant and the petitioner. The petitioner is in custody since 12.09.2024 and has got one criminal antecedent in which he is on bail.
5. Learned APP for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner and submits that on perusal of record it appears that there is direct and specific allegation against the petitioner of committing rape upon the informant. It is further submitted that the informant has also supported the prosecution case in her statement recorded under Sections 180 and 183 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. Hence, the petitioner does not deserve the privilege of bail.
6. 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 at this stage.
