Heard the parties.
The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Mahagama P.S. Case No. 78 of 2024, for the offence registered under Sections 376(2)(n), 504, 506 & 120B of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the court of Sri Satish Kumar Munda, learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Godda.
On the promise of marriage, petitioner had established consensual physical relationship with the victim, who was a major lady.
It appears that the parties were in consensual physical relationship for about four years.
In view of the aforesaid fact, I am inclined to release the petitioner, on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, named above, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of Sri Satish Kumar Munda, learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Godda, or his successor, in connection with Mahagama P.S. Case No. 78 of 2024.
