Singh, A.P.P. ----------- 8. 28.10.2009. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. appearing on behalf of the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 366A/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It is submitted that the girl eloped with the boy on her own which would be apparent from the first information report. Petitioner is stated to be in jail custody since 8.11.2008. It is further submitted that two other co-accused persons, namely, Munnu Sah and Santosh Kumar have already been granted bail by this Court. Learned counsel for the State submitted that the petitioner is not only named in the F.I.R., rather the victim girl, who is minor, has stated in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C. that it was the petitioner, who had kidnapped her. Apart from that during the course of investigation, she has also stated 2 before the police that the petitioner had forcibly married her in a mosque. In the above view of the matter, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner for the present. This application is dismissed at this stage. dk ( Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J. )
