It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false and the victim in her statement recorded under Section 180 of BNSS, has categorically stated that she voluntarily went with the petitioner to the park and ate food and snacks there and as the victim refused to go with her parents, she was sent to Child Care Centre.

It is next submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is ready and willing to co-operate with the trial of the case and undertakes not to annoy or disturb the informant or the
other witness of the case in any manner during trial of the case hence, the petitioner may be admitted to regular bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposed the prayer for regular bail . Considering submissions of learned counsels and the facts as stated above, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Hence, the court below is directed to release the petitioner on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned JMFC, Dhanbad in connection with Baliapur P.
