IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 2146 of 2025 Vishwajeet Kumar aged about 24 years, Son of Suresh Vishwakarma, Resident of Vill- Mukundganj, P.O- and P.S- Muffasil, District- Hazaribagh. … … Petitioner - Versus - The State of Jharkhand ... … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: - HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE AMBUJ NATH ----- For the Petitioner: M/s. A. K. Chaturvedy, Advocate For the State : M/s. S. K. Tiwari, Spl.P.P --- 02/19.03.2025 Heard the Parties. Petitioner has been made an accused in connection with Hazaribag Muffasil P.S case no. 03/2025 registered under section 376 of the Indian Penal Code, Sections 4/ 6 of POCSO Act and Sections 66E, 67a and 67b of the Information Technology Act, pending in the court of learned Additional Sessions Judge-III-Cum Special Judge POCSO Act, Hazaribag. The petitioner who is the teacher of the victim is alleged to have raped her. Learned lawyer for the petitioner submitted that there is delay of two years in lodging of this FIR. From the perusal of the written report, it appears that the victim out of fear and shame had kept shut but when her video went viral, she has lodged this case. Regard being had to the facts and circumstance of the case; I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is hereby rejected. (Ambuj Nath, J.) Saurabh uploaded
