:

KISHORE C. SANT, J.

DATED :

06.12.2022 PC :- 01.

Heard learned Advocate for the applicant for some time. He submits that there is no sufficient evidence on record to connect the accused with the offence. He further submits that he has been falsely implicated in the offence. He was arrested on 19.04.2019 and since then he is in jail. Because of financial constraints, he could not deposit the amount of fine. Considering that he has already spent more than three years in jail, learned Advocate prays for suspension of sentence and release of the applicant on bail. 02.

Heard learned APP for the respondent/State. She submits that the offence is of serious nature. The accused has committed offence against his own daughter of 14 years. There is sufficient evidence on record. She prays that this is not a fit case where the applicant deserves bail. 03.

Considering the submissions, the application is rejected. [KISHORE C. SANT, J.] snk/2022/DEC22/cria3118.22
