STATE OF MADHYA PRADESH Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) This is first application filed under Sec. 439 of Cr.P.C for grant of bail to the applicant, as he has been arrested on 3/9/2021 in connection with Crime No.690/2021, registered at Police Station-Nagda, District- Ujjain (M.P.) for commission of offence punishable under Sec. 366, 376(2)(N) and 506 of IPC.

(2.) Prosecution story, in brief, is that applicant on false pretext of marriage took the prosecutrix at different places and committed rape upon her repeatedly.

(3.) Learned counsel for the applicant submits that prosecutrix is a major lady aged about 40 years. The applicant and prosecutrix both are relatives and were known to each other. Prosecutrix voluntarily went with the applicant and applicant has not committed any offence. F.I.R. is delayed by more than one month without any reasonable cause. Applicant is in custody since 3/9/2021. He has been falsely implicated in the matter. Investigation is complete and charge-sheet has been filed. Trial will take time for its conclusion. Hence, prayer is made to enlarge the applicant on bail.
