As the deceased was not in a position to meet such demands, she used to complain to her parents and maternal uncle. The maternal uncle had filed the First Information Report. 3.

Considering the allegations against the present applicant and considering his custody since 26th February, 2010 and considering that the chargesheet has already been filed and the investigation is over, the applicant can be released on bail.
