Patna High Court – Orders

                              Cr.Misc. No.13809 of 2011
                                      Rakesh Singh
                                           Versus
                                   The State Of Bihar
                                         -----------

2 30.06.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well

as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the state.

The petitioner is said to be rapist of a minor girl,

aged about 9-10 years.

The contention of learned counsel for the

petitioner is that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in

this case by the informant and as a matter of fact, no such

occurrence did ever take place. It is contended by him that

the fardbeyan of the informant was recorded on 29.10.2010

whereas, the occurrence is said to be taken place on

25.10.2010 and no explanation of the aforesaid delay, has

been given. It is further contended by him that several co-

villagers submitted a written report before the DIG, Saran

Range, Chapra disclosing the real fact and furthermore,

when the victim girl was medically examined on 02.11.2010,

no sign of intercourse was found on her person and

furthermore, the prosecution has not given explanation for

delay in examination of the victim girl.

Although learned counsel for the petitioner tried

to convince me about the innocence of the petitioner but I

am not, at all, convinced with his submission. Admittedly, the
2

victim girl has narrated the entire episode in her statement

recorded under section-164 of the Cr.P.C. Therefore,

considering the nature of alleged offence as well as

submission of the parties, the prayer for bail of the petitioner

in connection with Garkha P.S. Case No. 237 of 2010

pending in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Saran at

Chapra stands rejected at least, at this stage.
