2. The applicant seeks enlargement on bail in FIR No.158 of 2025, under sections 77, 351(2), 352, 70BNS, P.S. Sangipur, District Pratapgarh.
3. Learned counsel for the applicant argues that in terms of FIR lodged on 28.8.2025 it was alleged that brothers of the informant, who are the applicant here, had made some inappropriate videos while daughter of the informant was taking bath. The tentative age of the victim is disclosed as 17 years. No allegations of rape was made. In terms of statement under Section 180 BNSS once again no allegations of rape was made only allegation of making some inappropriate videos made viral was levelled. However in her statement under Section 183 BNSS recorded on 8.9.2025 i.e. after substantial delay of 11 days allegations of rape against both the brothers were levelled. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that admittedly some land dispute is going on between the parties the allegations of rape was baseless. Medical on record also does not indicate any injury on private parts of the victim. The tentative age of the victim is more than 18 years as per high school certificate.

5. Considering the huge variance in two statements and medical on record not corroborating the allegations and pending civil dispute in between the parties, however, without commenting upon the merits of the case, the applicant who is in jail since 20.9.2025 and has no criminal history is entitled to be enlarged on bail. In view thereof, the application is allowed.
6. Let the applicant Vikas Tiwari be released on bail in aforesaid FIR number on his furnishing a personal bond with two sureties of Rs.20,000/- each to the satisfaction of court concerned with the following conditions:
(a) The applicant shall execute a bond to undertake to attend the hearings; (b) The applicant shall not commit any offence similar to the offence of which he is accused or suspected of the commission; and
