Court No. - 65 (Sr. No.173 out of 277) HON'BLE KRISHAN PAHAL, J.
1. List has been revised.
2. Heard Sri Vivek Singh, learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the material placed on record.
3. Applicant seeks bail in S.T. No.470 of 2025, arising out of Case Crime No.454 of 2024, under Sections 64, 333 BNS, Police Station Partapur, District Meerut, during the pendency of trial.
4. Learned counsel for the applicant has argued that the applicant is absolutely innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. The victim is a consenting party as far as the instant case is concerned. She is stated to have been taken by the applicant by force to his house and after closing the door committed rape with her twice. The victim did not raise any alarm during the said period of stay in the house of applicant, as such, it is a clear cut case of false implication.
5. Learned counsel for the applicant has further argued that it is true that victim had sustained injuries on her body, but so had the applicant. Both of them were injured as were seen by the parents of the victim and both were given a hard beating by them. The said fact stands fortified by the statement of victim recorded by the doctor conducting her medical examination. The applicant has no criminal history and is in jail since 5.12.2024. He undertakes to cooperate with the trial and not misuse the liberty of bail. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Vivek Singh Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A.

learned counsel for the parties, the evidence on record, taking into
consideration the statement of victim recorded by the doctor concerned and the injuries sustained by the victim and applicant coupled by the fact that victim had not raised any alarm whatsoever during the period of stay in the house of applicant, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, prima-facie the Court is of the view that the applicant has made out a case for bail.
