[2] As per prosecution case, on 26/9/2013 at about 8 p.m.
when the prosecutrix was going to attend the call of nature
near her house situated at village Jammwada, the appellant
met her on the way. He caught hold of her and took her to a
room built at Tejlal Sahu’s farm used for fastening bulls and
committed rape with her there and also threatened to kill her.
At about 12 a.m. the prosecutrix’s father Ramdas and mother
Sugarti Bai came there and on seeing them appellant fled
away. Prosecutrix narrated the incident to them.They took her
to P.S. Amla, Distt. Betul where she lodged the report. On that
report, police registered Crime no.341/13 for the offences
punishable under Sections 342, 376(2) (Jha) and 506 of I.P.C.
and also under Sections 3 (2) (v) read with 3(1)(xii)of SC/ST
(Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989 and investigated the
matter. During investigation Police did not get the accused. So
after investigation police filed the charge sheet in the absence
of the appellant. On that, charge sheet, Special Case No. 31/17
was registered. Police arrested the appellant on 6/5/2017 and
produced before the court. Learned Court sent him to judicial
custody. On that appellant filed an application under Section
439 of Cr.P.C. seeking bail, which was rejected by the learned
Special Judge, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act vide order
dated 27/5/2017. Being aggrieved by the impugned order,
appellant filed this Criminal Appeal.
[3] Learned counsel for the appellant submitted that

and conclusion of trial will take time, so appellant be released
on bail.
[4] Respondent No.2 and her counsel submitted that they
have no objection on appellant being granted bail .
[5] Learned counsel for the State/Respondent No.1 opposed
the prayer and submitted that In the marksheet the date of birth
of prosecutrix is mentioned as 08/10/98 which shows that
prosecutrix was only 15 years of age when the appellant
committed rape with her and appellant remained absconded
for a long period, So he shall not be released on bail.
[6] Looking to the allegations levelled against the appellant
that he committed rape of minor girl of 15 years and remained
absconding for a long time after incident. Besides the
possibility of tampering with the evidence by the accused if
released on bail at this stage also can not be ruled out.So in
the considered opinion of this court learned trial court did not
commit any mistake in rejecting the application of applicant
for releasing him on bail at this stage. So his appeal is rejected
with the liberty that after recording the statement of the
prosecutrix, the appellant is free to again file fresh bail
application.
Accordingly, Cr.A. No. 2239/2017 is disposed of.

[2] As per prosecution case, on 26/9/2013 at about 8 p.m.
when the prosecutrix was going to attend the call of nature
near her house situated at village Jammwada, the appellant
met her on the way. He caught hold of her and took her to a
room built at Tejlal Sahu’s farm used for fastening bulls and
committed rape with her there and also threatened to kill her.
At about 12 a.m. the prosecutrix’s father Ramdas and mother
Sugarti Bai came there and on seeing them appellant fled
away. Prosecutrix narrated the incident to them.They took her
to P.S. Amla, Distt. Betul where she lodged the report. On that
report, police registered Crime no.341/13 for the offences
punishable under Sections 342, 376(2) (Jha) and 506 of I.P.C.
and also under Sections 3 (2) (v) read with 3(1)(xii)of SC/ST
(Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989 and investigated the
matter. During investigation Police did not get the accused. So
after investigation police filed the charge sheet in the absence
of the appellant. On that, charge sheet, Special Case No. 31/17
was registered. Police arrested the appellant on 6/5/2017 and
produced before the court. Learned Court sent him to judicial
custody. On that appellant filed an application under Section
439 of Cr.P.C. seeking bail, which was rejected by the learned
Special Judge, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act vide order
dated 27/5/2017. Being aggrieved by the impugned order,
appellant filed this Criminal Appeal.
[3] Learned counsel for the appellant submitted that
appellant has falsely been implicated in this matter. Appellant
is in custody since 6/5/2017, the charge sheet has been filed
and conclusion of trial will take time, so appellant be released
on bail.
[4] Respondent No.2 and her counsel submitted that they
have no objection on appellant being granted bail .
[5] Learned counsel for the State/Respondent No.1 opposed
the prayer and submitted that In the marksheet the date of birth
of prosecutrix is mentioned as 08/10/98 which shows that
prosecutrix was only 15 years of age when the appellant
committed rape with her and appellant remained absconded
for a long period, So he shall not be released on bail.
[6] Looking to the allegations levelled against the appellant
that he committed rape of minor girl of 15 years and remained
absconding for a long time after incident. Besides the
possibility of tampering with the evidence by the accused if
released on bail at this stage also can not be ruled out.So in
the considered opinion of this court learned trial court did not
commit any mistake in rejecting the application of applicant
for releasing him on bail at this stage. So his appeal is rejected
with the liberty that after recording the statement of the
prosecutrix, the appellant is free to again file fresh bail
application.
Accordingly, Cr.A. No. 2239/2017 is disposed of.
