P.C. :

1.

Heard learned counsel for the Applicant and learned APP for the State.

2.

By this application, the applicant is seeking regular bail in Crime No. 263 of 2022 registered with Talegaon MIDC Police Station for the offence punishable under Section 376(1) (2) (N) of the Indian Penal Code.

3.

It is contention of learned counsel for the Applicant that Applicant was released on bail. He is arrested by executing NBW as he was not attending Court's dates regularly. Learned counsel further submitted that Applicant undertakes to attend the Court's dates regularly and requested to allow the application.

It is contention of learned APP that trial is in progress. Applicant remained absent before the trial Court for several dates, hence, NBW issued against him. If he released on bail, trial may prolong and requested to reject the application.

5.

I have heard both learned counsel. As Applicant was already released on bail and he undertakes to attend the Court's dates regularly, I pass following order:

ORDER
