Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order on Board 06.01.2020 • Earlier, a notice was sent to the complainant/informant and a date of 12.12.2019 was fixed for his/her appearance before the Court but the complainant/informant did not present on the same date before the Court and it is still awaited. • The accused/applicant has moved this first bail application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for releasing him on regular bail during trial in connection with Crime No. 126/2018 registered at Police Station - Balrampur, District Balrampur Ramanujganj (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 363, 366 & 376 of IPC, Sections 5(n) & 6 of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012.

• The prosecution story in brief is that, the allegation against the present applicant is that he has committed sexual intercourse with the prosecutrix against her will. On the basis of that, after investigation, offence has been registered against the applicant and he has been arrested.

• Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the case. He further submits that in the statement of prosecutrix and her mother have been recorded before the trial Court and they did not support the case of the prosecution. He further submits that applicant is jail since 02.07.2018 there is no previous antecedent against him, therefore, the present appellant may be released on bail.

• On the other hand, counsel for the State opposes the bail application.

• I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary.

• Taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offence, facts and circumstances of the case, further considering the that fact that the prosecutrix has not supported the case and turned hostile, the trial is likely to take some time for its final disposal, this Court is of the view that it is a fit case to release the applicant on bail. Accordingly, the application is allowed.

• Accused/applicant is directed to be released on bail on his executing a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 25,000/- with one surety in the like sum to the satisfaction of the trial Court. He is directed to appear before the said Court on each and every date given to him by the said Court.
