Hon'ble Siddharth,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.
The submission is that applicant has been falsely implicated in this case by the informant for ulterior motives. The allegations made in the FIR by the informant against the applicant have not been supported by the victim in her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C. The age of the victim as per medical report has been found to be 21 years. Hence no offence is made out against the applicant. The applicant has no criminal history to his credit and he is languishing in jail since 10.10.2019. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail.
Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by learned counsel for the applicant.
After considering the rival submissions noted hereinabove, larger mandate of Article 21 of the Constitution of India and the material brought on record and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail.
