JUDGEMENT
DAYA CHAUDHARY,J. -
(1.) The present petition has been filed under Section
438 Cr.P.C. for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner in case FIR No. 12 dated 31.1.2016 registered under Sections 376/506 IPC at Women
Police Station, District Gurgaon.
(2.) Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case, whereas, he was not involved. The
petitioner is unmarried, whereas, the complainant is a divorcee and is
having a 12 years old daughter as well. Both the parties were known to
each other for the last few months. The complainant introduced herself as
an unmarried girl to the petitioner with an ulterior motive and there was
involvement of her family members also. Even in whatsapp messages, the
complainant has shown herself to be an unmarried girl and the factum of
her earlier marriage was not told to the petitioner. Learned counsel also
submits that both the parties were having liking for each other but no
promise of marriage was ever made. Learned counsel has relied upon the
judgments of Hon'ble the Apex Court in the case of K.P. Thimmappa Gowda
v. State of Karnataka 2011(2) R.C.R.(Criminal) 589 : 2011 (14) SCC 475,
Tilak Raj v. State of Himachal Pradesh 2016 (1) RCR (Criminal) 802, of
this Court in Ram Lubhaya v. State of Punjab passed in Crl. Misc. No.
M-14699 of 2014 on 26.5.2014, Neeraj Kumar v. State of Haryana passed in
Crl. Misc. No. M-131 of 2016 on 10.3.2016, of Delhi High Court in Vikul
Bakshi v. The State (NCT of Delhi) 2016 (1) JCC 54, Rohit Chauhan v.
State NCT of Delhi 2014 (1) RCR (Criminal) 1030, Nirmal Vaid v. State NCT
of Delhi 2014 (12) RCR (Criminal) 2406 and of Bombay High Court in Mahesh
Balkrishna Dandane v. State of Maharashtra 2014 (4) Crimes 37, in support
of his contentions.
(3.) Mr. Dinesh Arora, Advocate appears on behalf of the complainant and submits that the petitioner was well aware about the marriage of the
complainant and her daughter from the earlier marriage. Not only promise
for marriage was made but under the pretext of marriage, physical
relations were also made with the complainant. The petitioner
subsequently backed out from the marriage and offence under Section 376
IPC is made out as has been held by Hon'ble the Apex Court in the case of
State of U.P. v. Naushad, 2014(1) R.C.R.(Criminal) 173 : 2013 (16) SCC
651.;
