JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) LEARNED counsel for the applicant and learned AGA have already
been heard and perused the record.
As per prosecution version about four months earlier of lodging
the F.I.R., the applicant/accused had intercourse with the
prosecutrix against her will and consent under threat. The
prosecutrix became pregnant and the incident exposed to all. The
prosecutrix requested the applicant/accused to marry her. Then the
applicant/accused advised her first to undergo abortion then he
would marry with her. The prosecutrix accordingly, had
undergone abortion seven days prior of lodging the F.I.R. When
the applicant/ accused refused to marry her, the F.I.R. was lodged
on 26.06.2011.
(2.) LEARNED counsel for the applicant/accused vehemently stated that from the facts disclosed in the F.I.R. itself it is obvious that the
prosecutrix was a consenting party and when accused refused to
marry her then F.I.R. has been lodged after delay of four months.
The prosecutrix is major above 22 years of age. The entire story
of having become pregnant because of sexual relation with the
applicant/ accused, is a cooked up story. In fact, the
applicant/accused has been booked in this case because of party
faction. Applicant/accused is languishing in jail since 05.09.2011.
He, therefore, deserves to be enlarged on bail.
Learned AGA opposed the bail application and submitted that the
prosecutrix in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.c.
fully corroborated the prosecution story. Applicant/accused had
forcibly intercourse with her under threat, therefore, he is not
entitled for bail.
Considering the rival contentions of both the sides and without
expressing any opinion, the applicant/accused deserves to be
enlarged on bail.
Let applicant Wahid Khan involved in case crime no. 1281 of 2011 under Section 376, 313, 506 I.P.C. P.S. Aonla, District Bareilly be released on bail on his executing a personal bond with
two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Chief
Judicial Magistrate concerned subject to the following conditions :
(i) The applicant/accused will not tamper with the evidence during the trial. (ii) The applicant/accused will not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witness. (iii) The applicant/accused will appear before the trial court on the date fixed, unless his personal appearance is exempted.
