On the other hand, learned counsel for the complainant submits that the petitioner had molest the prosecutrix to get her a job in HTET and therefore she became friendly with him. However, the petitioner had misused the friendship and developed sexual relationship with her. He has also black mailed her and made different photographs . Learned counsel for the State also supported the submission of the counsel for the prosecutrix.
I have considered the submissions and pursued the documents which have come on record and without commenting on merits of the case I found there have been relations between the prosecutrix and the petitioner and that both are major. Accordingly, I am inclined to grant bail to the petitioner subject to satisfaction of the trial Court concerned on furnishing personal surety bond to the tune of Rs.20,000/- and a surety in the like amount.
Accordingly, the petitioner stands allowed.
