Learned counsel for the applicant has argued that the applicant is 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 is delayed by more than seven hours and there is no explanation of the said delay caused. 6. Learned counsel has also stated that there is no injury sustained by the victim as per the injury report, as such, it is a clear cut case of false implication. The allegations have been inflated a bit in the statement of victim recorded u/s 183 BNSS and that too after legal consultations. 7. Learned counsel has next contended that the applicant is languishing in jail since 28.04.2025, having no criminal history to his credit.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions made by learned counsel for the parties, nature of offence, severity of punishment and also considering the delay in lodging the FIR and there being no medical corroboration of the incident, prima facie I find it a fit case to release the applicant on bail.
