This is an application under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023, wherein the petitioner, namely, Mr. Chandan Baruah, has prayed for grant of bail in Page No.# 2/3 connection with Latasil P.S. Case No.06/2025 under Sections 318(4)/127(3)/109/351(3)/64(2)(1)/69 of the BNS. The informant girl was maintaining a relationship with the present petitioner for a long time. They were thinking about their marriage also. The petitioner even has a good relationship with the relatives of the girl. According to the girl, she even visited different places together with the petitioner. Now the girl alleges that thereafter the petitioner used to misbehave the girl and assaulted her for small reason. On 23.01.2025, when the girl visited his house, she was brutally beaten. He even assaulted her private parts. Next day, she was allowed to go home on the ground of celebration of her brother’s birthday. It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he became violent because he got some information that the girl was also maintaining relationship with some other person. I have considered the submissions of both sides. This is a dispute between the two young persons. As such, this Court is of the opinion that under the given circumstances, the petitioner does not deserve to be detained in custody. Therefore, the bail prayer is allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner, named above, in connection with above noted case, shall be released on bail of Rs.20,000/- with one surety of like amount to Page No.# 3/3 the satisfaction of the learned CJM, Kamrup (M), Guwahati, Assam.
