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.

It is submitted on behalf of the applicant that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case. He is in jail since 03-01-2020. No case is made out against him. Charge sheet has also been filed after completion of the investigation. Therefore, it is prayed that the application may be allowed. 3.

Learned counsel for the State/non-applicant opposes the application and submits that the case diary is not available and apart from that, according to the facts of the case, the applicant is not entitled for grant of bail. 4.

According to the prosecution case, the applicant outraged the modesty of the minor victim by use of physical force in which he disrobed her and

-2molested her and also threatened her with dire consequences. Hence, this case.
