Learned counsel for the applicant has argued that the applicant is absolutely innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. He has nothing to do with the said offence as alleged in the FIR. The FIR itself is delayed and there is no explanation of the said delay caused. 5. Learned counsel has also stated that the victim is the consenting party as is evident from the circumstances as she had gone with the applicant to Delhi and has not raised any alarm whatsoever. Although, she has subsequently stated in her statement that the applicant had raped her and threatened to pour acid on her, as such, the FIR was instituted. All the allegations are vague. The victim is major aged about 20 years. There is no medical evidence to corroborate the prosecution story. 6. Several other submissions have been made on behalf of the applicant to demonstrate the falsity of the allegations made against him. The circumstances which, as per counsel, led to the false implication of the applicant have also been touched upon at length. There is no criminal history of the applicant. The applicant is languishing in jail since 16.01.2025 and he is ready to cooperate with trial. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail. 7. Per contra, learned State Law Officer has vehemently opposed the bail application but unable to dispute the submissions raised by the learned counsel for the applicant and also the fact that the applicant has no criminal history. 8.
