Hon'ble Umesh Chandra Srivastava,J.
Heard Shri Bharat Singh, learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.
It is submitted by learned counsel for the applicant that though applicant is named in the F.I.R. and it is stated that he along with co-accused entice away the victim, however, as a matter of fact, victim had an affair with co- accused Harish Chandra and had gone with him out of her own sweet will, which is apparent from her statement under section 161 Cr.P.C. It is also submitted that victim has given false statement under section 164 Cr.P.C. under pressure of family members and even according to that she had stayed in the house of the co-accused Harish Chandra for about a month without raising any alarm. Further submission is that per medical report, victim is major. It is also submitted that applicant, who is in jail since 17.12.2017 has no other criminal history and there is also no possibility of his either fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering with the witnesses. Applicant also undertakes that he will not misuse the liberty, if granted.
Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the prayer.
Having heard the submission of learned counsel of both sides, considering the facts and circumstances of the case and without commenting on the merits of the case, I find it to be a case of bail.
Let applicant Chhotey be released on bail in Case Crime No. 469 of 2017, under Sections 363, 366, 376 I.P.C., P.S.j Bilsi, District Badaun, on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of magistrate/court concerned, subject to following conditions:-
