22.02.2021 Heard on the application for grant of leave to appeal.

2. Even if, we are inclined to condone the delay in filing the application, we do not find any merit in this application because the accused has been acquitted giving benefit of doubt mainly for the reason that the prosecutrix (PW-2) has not supported the prosecution case and has turned completely hostile. The application is therefore, rejected as without merit. Accordingly the CRMP is dismissed. Sd/- Sd/- Manindra Mohan Shrivastava Vimla Singh Kapoor Judge Judge santosh
