SHUBHAM Vs. STATE OF U. P.

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned AGA for the State. By means of this application, the applicant who is involved in case crime no. 103 of 2021, under Ss. 342, 376, 506 IPC, and 5/6 Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO), P.S. Kotwali City, District Banda, is seeking enlargement on bail during the trial.

(2.) Contention raised by the applicant that the age of the prosecutrix is barely 13 years, provely minor girl. The applicant is sole named accused persons. I have keenly perused the statement given by the doctor that the applicant happens to be the uncle of the prosecutrix and he has touched the minor girl in a indecent way, and has tried to rub his genitals by her. This by itself is abhorring and repulsive statement given by the minor girl against the applicant.

(3.) Under the circumstances, I am not inclined to exercise my powers under Sec. 439 Cr.P.C. in favour of the applicant, the bail application of the applicant is hereby rejected.
