1.

This matter is taken up by video conferencing mode. 2.

This is the second journey of this petitioner, who is in custody in connection with Singla P.S. Case No.212 of 2018 corresponding to Special Case No.333 of 2018 pending in the Court of the learned Additional Sessions Judge-Special Judge, Balasore for offence punishable under sections 376(2)(j)/376(2)(n), 376(3) & 506, I.P.C. read with section 6 of the POCSO Act in filing this application under section 439, Cr.P.C. for his release on bail.

3.

Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned counsel for the State.

4.

Considering the submissions made and on going through the materials on record as also the surrounding circumstances; while being not inclined to reconsider for grant of bail to the Petitioner; this application is disposed of granting liberty to the Petitioner to renew his prayer for grant of bail before the Trial Court after examination of the victim.

// 2 // 5.

It is needless to say that the Trial Court would do well to take all such effective steps as provided in law for early examination of the victim so as to enable the Petitioner to exercise the liberty as afore-granted.

6.

The BLAPL is accordingly dismissed.

7.

Issue urgent certified copy as per rules.

(D. Dash) Judge Himansu
