Ghatge, Advocate for the applicant Shri K.S. Patil, APP for the respondent / State CORAM : R.Y. GANOO, J. DATED : 17th December, 2011 PER COURT : 1. Heard learned Advocates of both sides. 2. The applicant apprehends arrest in connection with CR No. 355 of 2011, registered with CIDCO Gramin Police Station, Nanded, for the offences punishable under Sections 376, 366 of the Indian Penal Code. 3. I have perused the police papers. Complainant Mrs. Jyoti is a married lady. She had dispute with her husband, and from reading of the F.I.R., it is apparent that she fell in love with the present applicant and 2 CA5366/2011 she had sexual intercourse with him. Reading the complete F.I.R., it is clear that the complainant had consented for the sexual intercourse, though in the complaint, she claims that she submitted herself on account of promises given by the applicant. 4. Looking to the age of the complainant, it would be just difficult to accept that the complainant did submit herself on account of promises. The complainant appears to have acted with complete understanding of what she did. For the aforesaid reasons, applicant can be granted anticipatory bail. Hence, following order is passed to dispose of the present application : ORDER A. In the event of arrest of the applicant in connection with CR No. 355 of 2011, registered with CIDCO Gramin Police Station, Nanded, he be released on bail in the sum of Rs.15,000/- (Rupees Fifteen Thousand) with one surety in the like amount.
