Learned counsel further submits that in her statement recorded under Section 180 & 183 B.N.S.S. though she has made allegation of rape against both the accused including the applicant, but there are various material contradictions as in her statement recorded under Section 183 B.N.S. despite allegation of rape she has also stated that both the accused had cut her lips and cheeks, but as per medical examination of the victim no any injury was found on her lips and cheeks. It has also been submitted in her internal examination no injury was seen by the doctor and the doctor has not given any definite opinion about her sexual assault. Thus applicant has falsely been implicated in the case. Several other submissions in order to demonstrate the falsity of the allegations made against the applicant have also been placed before the Court. The circumstances which, according to the counsel, led to the false implication of the accused have also been mentioned. It has also been assured on behalf of the applicant that he is ready to cooperate with the process of law and shall faithfully make himself available before the court whenever required and is also ready to accept all the conditions which the Court may deem fit to impose upon him. He next submits that applicant is languishing in jail since 01.08.2025, having no criminal history. 3. Per contra, learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserve any indulgence.
