Hon'ble Ram Krishna Gautam,J.
Heard over bail application moved by applicant, Mohit Singh Tomar, in Case Crime No. 107 of 2020, under Sections- 363, 366, 376 I.P.C. & 3/4 of POCSO Act, P.S. Kotwali, District- Mathura.
Learned counsel for the applicant argued that the accused- applicant is innocent; he has been falsely implicated in this very case crime number and is languishing in jail since 17.3.2020; he is of no criminal antecedent and there is no likelihood of fleeing from course of justice or tempering with evidence in case of release on bail; prosecutrix has been said to be of 14 years in FIR whereas in counter affidavit, filed by learned A.G.A., she has been said to be of 16 years with date of birth 5.7.2004, in education record, which is itself with two years variance; she has refused for her medical age determination by Medical Board; she, in her statement recorded under Section 161 Cr.P.C., has said nothing incriminating against applicant whereas in statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C., it was developed so. Hence, bail has been prayed for.
Learned AGA has vehemently opposed, but could not oppose this fact that the applicant is of no criminal antecedent.
Having heard learned counsels for both sides and gone through materials placed on record as well as considering all above facts and circumstances, the nature of accusations, severity of the punishment in the case of conviction and nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with the witness and prima facie case, but, without commenting on merits of the case, a case for bail is made out.
