1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. and perused the record. Despite service of notice, no one appeared on behalf of the complainant. 2. The applicant seeks enlargement on bail in FIR No.123 of 2025, under Sections 137(2), 87, 65(1), 74 of BNS and Section 3/4 of POCSO Act, Police Station Shivratanganj, District Amethi. 3. In terms of the FIR, it was alleged that the daughter of the informant was enticed by the applicant. Subsequently, in the statement under Section 180 of BNSS, the victim stated she knew the applicant for the last one year and was in love with him. In the statement under Section 183 of BNSS, the victim stated that the applicant had refused to marry with her and all the other versions were reiterated. The tentative age of the victim is around 19 years as per the medical examination. 4. Learned A.G.A. vehemently opposed the bail prayer. 5. Considering the two statements of the victim not supporting the prosecution case and the fact that the applicant has no criminal antecedents and is languishing in jail since 22.10.2025, I am of the view that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Dilip Kumar Pandey Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Vinay Kumar .....Applicant(s) The State Of U.P. Thru. Prin.
