Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand ….. Opp. Party --------- CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE DEEPAK ROSHAN -------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Pratik Sen, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Shiv Shankar Kumar, A.P.P. --------- Order No. 02/Dated: 03rd June, 2025 Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. The instant bail application has been preferred by the petitioner for grant of regular bail for the offences registered under Section 366-A of the Indian Penal Code and subsequently, cognizance under Section 366-A of the Indian Penal Code and Section 4/6 of POCSO Act. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case, due to ulterior motive by the informant. It is further submitted that the victim girl is a major, therefore, no case is made out against the petitioner under the alleged Section. Petitioner is languishing in custody since 19.01.2025. As such, he may be enlarged on bail. 4. Learned A.P.P. has opposed the prayer for bail. 5. From bare perusal of the impugned order, it clearly transpires that the victim girl disclosed that she has married with the accused and they have been blessed with one male child and further, the victim girl refused for medical examination. 6. Having regard to the facts of the case and looking to the allegation made against this petitioner, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner named above is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sessions ( 2025:JHHC:14405 ) Page-2 Judge, Ramgarh in connection with Special POCSO Case No. 12 of 2025 arising out of Patratu (Bhurkunda) P.S.- Case No. 127 of 2023. 7. It is made clear that till commencement of trial, the petitioner shall report to the local police station every month and after commencement of trial, he shall appear on each and every date before the learned trial court and he shall not threaten any witnesses and shall co-operate in trial and if any adverse report will come against the petitioner, learned trial court shall be at liberty to cancel the bail of this petitioner.
