For Non-applicant/State - Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh, Panel Lawyer. Hon'ble Shri Justice Rajendra Chandra Singh Samant Order on Board 17-04-2018 1.

Heard on the application filed under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. This is first bail application before this Court filed by the applicant for grant of regular bail. The applicant has been arrested on 17-01-2018 in connection with Crime No.04/2018 registered at P.S. - Khadgawa, District-Korea, Chhattisgarh for the offence under Section 354, 506 of the IPC.

2.

It is submitted on behalf of the applicant that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case. He is in jail since 17-01-2018. Presently charge sheet has been filed and the trial is likely to take some time before its conclusion. No case is made out against this applicant. Hence, it is prayed that the applicant may be granted regular bail.

3.

Learned counsel for the State/non-applicant opposes the application. 4.

Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary. 5.

According to the prosecution case, on 15-12-2017 the victim aged about 16 years was traveling in an auto-rickshaw, when this applicant pulled her out from the auto-rickshaw and put vermilion on her head saying that she has

-2become his wife and she is bound to come to his home and threatened that otherwise he would kill her. The victim narrated the story to her family members. After that a meeting was called and subsequent to that on 08-012018, the applicant again threatened the victim that he would kill her. Then FIR was lodged on 12-01-2018.

6.

Considered on the material present in the case diary. As the charge sheet has been filed and the trial is likely to take some time, no purpose would be served if the applicant is kept in detention till conclusion of the trial, I am of this view that this applicant should be released on bail during pendency of the trial against him.

7.

Consequently, this application filed by the applicant under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail is hereby allowed. It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety in the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned Court, for his appearance as and when directed. 8.

Certified copy as per rules.
