Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR…………………………….OPPOSITE PARTY. ----------- For the Petitioner : Mrs. Binita Singh, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Jharkhandi Upadhyay, A.P.P. ----------- 2. 18.5.2009. Azhar Ansari, one of the F.I.R. named accused of Pawna P.S. Case No.39 of 2008 registered under Sections 366(A) and 120(B)/34 I.P.C., is in custody for allegedly having induced a minor girl Shobha Kumari, from the legal guardianship of her parents. The victim girl in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C. has stated that while she was going to attend the call of nature, she was induced by the petitioner and brought to Patna from where she was taken to Gaya and then again brought back to Phulwarisharif where she was forced into marriage. She has also stated that she was forcibly taken to Masjid and contact marriage with the petitioner and thereafter she was subjected to rape. In her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C. the victim girl has stated her age as 14 years whereas the court has assessed her age as 13-14 years. The father of the victim girl has stated her age to be 15 years. From the above, it appears that the minor girl has been forcibly induced to contact marriage resultant into intercourse. I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. His prayer for bail is accordingly rejected. P.S. (Abhijit Sinha,J)
