BY SRI. M.S.BREEZ PUBLIC PROSECUTOR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 17/05/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: K. HEMA, J. ------------------------ B.A. No. 2452 of 2010 ------------------------------------ Dated this the 17th day of May, 2010 O R D E R This petition is for anticipatory bail. 2. According to the prosecution, petitioner was in love with the de facto complainant since 2003 and he promised to marry her. The petitioner committed rape on the de facto complainant on several occasions, since 23.12.2007. Later, he informed the de facto complainant that he is getting married to another woman. De facto complainant made a complaint on 23.12.2007. Two days after the same, he married another woman. 3. Learned counsel for petitioner submitted that it is improbable that petitioner himself would say that he was getting married to another woman and the allegation that he disclosed about his marriage to de facto complainant would negative the fraudulent intention. Hence petitioner may be granted anticipatory bail, it is submitted. 4. The learned Public Prosecutor strongly opposed the bail application. There is no ground to grant bail in this case, it is submitted. B.A. No. 2452 of 2010 2 On hearing both sides and considering the nature of the offence, I find that this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail. This petitioner is dismissed. K. HEMA, JUDGE ln
