The prosecutrix herself testified that she had relationship with the accused for two years. She had gone to Pune to meet the accused and also indulged in sexual intimacy with him. Her case was that she submitted to desires of the accused on the ground that she was promised marriage but after two years the accused did not marry her. Therefore, a complaint for the offence punishable under Section 376 of the IPC was lodged. Even if the testimony of the prosecutrix is taken on face value it does not disclose the offence under Section 376 of the IPC. We do not find any ground to interfere in the impugned judgment and order. Application for leave to appeal is dismissed and disposed of. (BILAL NAZKI,J) (A.R.JOSHI,J)
