                                            -----------

02 15.07.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as

learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

Petitioner is languishing in jail custody since 24.03.2011

in a case registered under Sections 363, 368, 372/34 of the Indian

Penal Code.

Admittedly, the victim recovered and her statement

under Section 161 of the Cr.P.C. was recorded by the Investigating

Officer and in the said statement, victim specifically stated that she

has already solemnized her marriage with the petitioner. It appears

that the bail petition of this petitioner has been rejected by learned

Additional Sessions Judge, Jehanabad only on the ground that in

course of medical examination she was found aged about between 15

to 16 years.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances as

well as submissions of the parties, let the petitioner be released on bail

on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two

sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial

Magistrate, Jehanabad in connection with Pali P.S. Case No. 08 of

2011.
