Criminal Misc. No. M-46208 of 2019 -2Learned State counsel does not dispute the custody of the petitioner and the fact that the prosecutrix has been declared hostile. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. Considering the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 01.06.2018 and the prosecutrix has been declared hostile and culpability of the petitioner is yet to be established during trial, which is no going to be concluded in near future, I deem it appropriate to release him on regular bail.
Accordingly, the present petition is allowed and the petitioner is admitted on regular bail, subject to furnishing of bail bonds/surety bonds to the satisfaction of trial Court.
