Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.28394 of 2020(3) dt.08-01-2021 2/2 case against him. Petitioner is in custody since 09.02.2020 having no criminal antecedent as stated in para 3 of the petition. Learned APP however, vehemently opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that the victim girl in her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C has made specific allegation of sexual assault against the petitioner and the victim is minor. Considering the facts aforesaid and statement of victim girl under Section 164 Cr.P.C, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner above-named on bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected.
