Though the conviction is under Section 376 of IPC and sentence is of 5 years, it is found that the prosecutrix was an adult and filed the complaint when the accused denied paternity. The applicant was also on bail in the trial Court and there is no history of abuse of bail. In the circumstances, I am inclined to grant bail. It is therefore, directed that pending the disposal of the appeal, the applicant be released on the same bail as in the trial Court subject to his furnishing fresh bond. Application stands disposed off. (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J)
