IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1913 of 2010 1. MD.AMEEN, son of late Sanif 2. Ahamadi Khatoon @ Ahamadi Begam, D/o late Sanif Both are resident of Gogri Mirkhana No.1, P.S. Gogri, District Khagaria 3. Md. Wadud @ Abdul Wadood, son of Ramjani, Resident of village Algaon, P.S. Jalalgarh, District Purnea Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 22.2.2010 Heard counsel for the petitioners and the counsel for the State. Considering the seriousness of the allegations pertaining to offence u/ss 376/497/498/302/120B/372/323/503/367 I.P.C. against the petitioners and the statement of the victim lady in her 164 Cr.P.C. directly alleging her being subjected to physical torture and rape followed by her being thrown to flesh trade this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The plea that such serious allegations was made at a belated stage would also not hold ground in facts of the present case because the victim girl was alone and was under consistent threat of the petitioners and their gang and therefore, if she was consistently and continuously duped 2 both physically and mentally, the delay in filing her case by itself would not discredit her entire version altogether. That being so, this Court would not find it a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail and accordingly such prayer of the petitioners is hereby rejected. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
