It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is an old man, aged about 55 years and he is father of eight children. Learned counsel for the State has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits that the petitioner being a man of 55 years old and father of eight children is involved in such a nasty crime and played with the life of an orphan girl. In that view of the matter, the prayer for anticipatory bail made on behalf of the petitioner is rejected. 2 Petitioner must surrender in the court below within a period of four weeks from today and, if so advised, seek regular bail. If such a petition is filed, the same may be considered and disposed of on its own merit without being prejudiced by the present order. AH/ ( Birendra Prasad Verma, J.)
