Petitioner seeks regular bail in a case registered for the offence punishable under Section 376 and some other ancillary Sections of the Indian Penal Code.

As per the prosecution case, on 05.04.2021 at about 11 PM when informant was sleeping in her house, this petitioner is alleged to have entered into the house and tried to commit rape upon her.

Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the case.

In fact the informant had taken loan of Rs. 70,000/- from the petitioner and petitioner was demanding the same and since informant did not intend to pay the amount she filed the present case. Petitioner claims clean antecedent and is in custody since 06.04.2021 and investigation in this case is complete.

Learned counsel appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

Considering the facts of the case and the period of custody of the petitioner, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Sitamarhi in connection with Dumra PS case No.125/2021.
