The petitioner seeks pre-arrest bail in connection with Town P.S. Case No. 605 of 2024 registered for the offence punishable under Sections 64, 352, 351(2) and 3(5) of the BNS and Sections 4 and 6 of the POCSO Act. 3. Allegation is of committing sexual wrong with the informant. 4. Considering the fact that the victim in her statement recorded under Section 183 BNSS has supported the allegation against her own uncle who has committed wrong with her, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on pre-arrest bail. 5. The bail application stands dismissed. mantreshwar/- (Purnendu Singh, J) U T
