U.S. Nagar Dated: April 15, 2010 Hon’ble Dharam Veer, J. Heard Sri S.C. Bhatt, learned counsel for the applicant and Sri Amit Bhatt, learned Addl. GA for the State. In brief the prosecution case is that on 17.2.2010 at about 12:00 PM, the applicant/accused kidnapped the three year old boy of the complainant. However, he was caught hold on the spot by the complainant and two police constables Trilok Chandra Pandey and Satyendra Chaudhary. Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the applicant has been falsely implicated. On the contrary, learned Addl. GA argued that the applicant was caught hold on the spot while taking the complainant’s three year old boy. He further submitted that the applicant had kidnapped the complainant’s son with the intention to cause him to be secretly and wrongfully confined. He further submitted that it is a heinous crime for kidnapping a three year old child. After considering the above-said facts and circumstances, on hearing learned counsel for the parties, contents of the FIR and other papers available on record particularly considering the gravity of the offence that the applicant had kidnapped the complainant’s son, who was only aged about 3 years, with intent to cause him to be secretly and wrongfully confined, it is not a fit case where the applicant is entitled for bail. The bail application is liable to be rejected and is accordingly rejected. 15.04.2010 Rajeev Dang (Dharam Veer, J.)
