Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is submitted that as per the Aadhar card of the victim her date of birth mentioned therein is 07.04.2006 and thus she was aged about 18 years at the time of the incident and a major. It is submitted that the first information report has been lodged after a delay of about 04 months & 23 days for which there is no plausible explanation. It is submitted that the victim denied her external and internal medical examination. The applicant has no criminal history as stated in para 19 and is in jail since 29.03.2025. 6. Per contra, learned counsel for the first informant and learned counsel for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that on the own showing of the applicant in paragraph 11 of the affidavit the date of birth of the victim as per High School mark-sheet is 04.08.2008 and as such she was a minor. It is submitted that the statements of the victim shows that she was kidnapped and kept under illegal confinement and raped. It is submitted that as such there are serious allegations against the applicant. 7. After having heard learned counsel for the parties and perusing the record, it is evident that the victim is a minor girl as per paragraph 11 of the affidavit itself.
