Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 17.8.2009. Heard counsel for the petitioner and the State. Allegation against the petitioner is that he committed an offence of rape on a ten years old daughter of the informant. Counsel for the petitioner submits that allegations are false. The case has been instituted as marriage negotiation of the elder daughter of the informant failed. It has also been submitted that in the compromise petition the informant has confirmed this fact that the case has been falsely instituted. An attempt was made by the petitioner to commit rape on a minor girl, compromise petition filed on behalf of the father, cannot diminish the seriousness of the offence, even though as per the allegation, rape was not committed and only attempt was made. It is not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Prayer for anticipatory is rejected. Sss/- (Mridula Mishra, J)
