Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.66923 of 2022(2) dt.25-04-2023 2/2 plication is the result of an after thought just to counter the matrimonial litigation pending between the sister of the informant and brother of petitioner. It is also pointed out that statement of victim under Section 164 of Cr.P.C. was recorded after one month of the occurrence. It is further submitted that as marriage of petitioner with informant could not negotiated due to certain family reason/compulsions, present false implication was raised. It is also submitted that no medical report is available on record in support of allegation as raised to cause miscarriage. While concluding the argument, it is submitted that petitioner is a man of clean antecedent.

Learned APP while opposing the prayer of bail submitted that allegation of rape and causing miscarriage is specific against this petitioner.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, as allegation of rape and miscarriage against this petitioner appears specific, the prayer of anticipatory bail of this petitioner is rejected herewith. (Chandra Shekhar Jha, J) veena/- U T
