Heard the parties at length and had gone through the documents, annexed along with this application. 3. Opportunity was given to the State to oppose the bail, which the State availed and opposed. 4. The allegation in the F.I.R. Is that the petitioner and the victim got close to each other and became friends. It is stated in the F.I.R. that they were in the relationship from 2022 to January 2025. It is further alleged that on the pretext of marriage, from time to time money was being taken by the petitioner from the informant, who was working in RIMS, Ranchi. It is further stated that she was taken to hotel, thereafter, on assurance of marriage they entered into the physical relationship. It is further alleged that from the month of January, 2025 the petitioner started avoiding the informant and he is not responding her calls. Thus, this F.I.R. has been lodged. 5. After hearing the parties, I find that the age of the victim is 30 years and she was in the relationship from 2022 to January 2025 and the fact that they entered into physical relationship, but now petitioner is avoiding her, I am inclined to allow this anticipatory bail application. Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the court below within four weeks from today and in the event of his surrender/arrest, the court below is directed to enlarge him on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/-(rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class- XXXII at Ranchi, in connection with Lalpur P.S.
