Application for regular bail. The petitioner faces

allegations for offences punishable inter alia under Section 366A

and 376 I.P.C. The crux of the allegations against the petitioner

is that he, a married person having two children, allegedly

induced the victim/a minor girl aged about 16 years but less than

18 years to go with him and had sexual intercourse with her on

the promise to marry her and despite her resistance for sexual

intercourse. The petitioner was arrested on 17/9/2007. He

continues in custody from that date.

2. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays, the

learned Public Prosecutor does not oppose the said prayer and I

am satisfied that regular bail can be granted to the petitioner

subject to appropriate conditions.

3. In the result, this petition is allowed. The petitioner

shall be released on bail on the following terms and conditions:

B.A.No.6343/07 2

lakh only) with two solvent sureties each for the like sum to the

satisfaction of the learned Magistrate.

interrogation before the investigating officer between 10 a.m

and 12 noon on all Mondays and Fridays, for a period of three

months and thereafter as and when directed by the investigating

complying with condition No.ii) above, enter the jurisdiction of
