When they reached near an orchard, the petitioner, who was already present there, stopped her daughter and behaved in improper manner. When her cousin protested, the petitioner tore his clothes. On their shouting,

4. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated. He is a person of clean antecedent. There is delay of one month in lodging of the FIR.
5. On the other hand, the learned APP for the State has opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that witness no. 1 and witness no. 2 have supported the prosecution case stating that the petitioner attempted to commit rape with the victim, who is 8 year old minor girl.
