1.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned APP for the State.
2.
This is an application for pre-arrest bail in respect of the offence punishable under Sections 354 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 in connection with C.R. No.593 of 2022 dated 24/10/2022 registered with MIDC Police Station, District Solapur.
3.
The complainant is married. It is alleged that she had come at her parental home during diwali. The applicant was 1/4
known to the family. On 24/10/2022 the applicant came outside the house and called the complainant's mother as he wanted to talk to her. The complainant's mother asked the applicant as why he had come and his presence is coming in the way of complainant's marriage. When the complainant went outside her home, the present applicant caught hold of her hand and insisted that she come with him for cohabitation. The applicant is 23 years of age. The accusations do not justify the conduct of the applicant. In my opinion considering the nature of accusations, the applicant will face the consequences of the trial. Some stringent conditions need to be imposed. His custodial interrogation is not required. The applicant must co-operate with the investigation.
4.
Learned counsel for the applicant on instructions makes a statement that he will not enter the vicinity of the complainant's residence and will not try and establish any contact with her during the pendency of the trial. Statement is accepted.
