In terms of the FIR, allegations were levelled that the applicant used to visit his relatives, who are living nearby the informant's house and for the last four, the applicant and the victim were in talking terms and on the false pretext of marriage, physical relations were formed on several occasions. The age of the victim is around 23 years and the age of the applicant is around 22 years.
4. Learned A.G.A. vehemently opposed the bail prayer.
5. Considering the fact that the relationship lasted over a span of four years and the age of the victim, which is around 23 years coupled with the fact that the applicant has no criminal antecedents and is languishing in jail since 16.10.2025 and there is nothing on record to demonstrate that the applicant if enlarged on bail, would in any way adversely affect the trial, I am of the view that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed.
