Petitioner has also handed over a copy of the evidence of the victim. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. Victim is present in-person. I have taken into account the materials appearing in the deposition of the victim and her consistent stand and is of 2 the opinion that this is not a fit case for releasing the petitioner on bail. However, the petitioner is in custody for about 2 years as apprised to this Court. Only 4 witnesses till date has been examined. 13 more witnesses are yet to be examined. Learned Trial Court would within a period of 6 months complete all the relevant witnesses. Petitioner would renew his prayer for bail after the aforesaid time period is over.
