THE HIGH COURT OF MADHYA PRADESH
M.Cr.C.45228/2021
Kapil vs. State of M.P
Gwalior, Dated :15.11.2021
Ms. Sangeeta Pachauri, Counsel for the applicant.
Shri Lokendra Shrivastava Counsel for the State.
Case diary is available.
It is submitted by the State Counsel that DNA test report is not
available.
This third application under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. has been
filed for grant of bail. Previous application was dismissed by order
dated 01.07.2021 passed in M.Cr.C. No. 32209/2021.
The applicant has been arrested on 10.09.2020 in connection
with Crime No.521/2020 registered at Police Station Bahodapur
Distt. Gwalior for offence under Sections 363 and 376 of IPC and
under Section 3/ 4 of POCSO Act.
It is submitted by the Counsel for the applicant that after
dismissal of the first bail application, the prosecutrix has been
examined on 31.8.2021 and she has not supported the prosecution
case.
Accordingly, this Court by order dated 14.09.2021 had directed
the State Counsel to requisition the DNA test report. Thereafter, the
case was adjourned on 27.9.2021, 20.10.2021, 21.10.2021 and
22.10.2021
, but the DNA test report has not been received. Thus, it is
clear that sufficient time has been granted to the State to produce the
THE HIGH COURT OF MADHYA PRADESH M.Cr.C.45228/2021 Kapil vs. State of M.P
DNA test report, but it has miserably failed in doing so.
When the prosecutrix has turned hostile, then this Court is left
with no other option, but to release the applicant on bail.
Accordingly, considering the facts and circumstances of the
case, without commenting on the merits of the case, the application is
allowed. It is directed that the applicant be released on bail on
furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One
Lac) with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Trial
Court/Committal Court to appear before the Court on the dates given
by the concerned Court.
This order shall remain effective till the end of trial but in case
of bail jump, it shall become ineffective.
In the light of the judgment passed by the Supreme Court in the
case of Aparna Bhat and others Vs. State of M.P. Passed on
18.03.2021 in Criminal Appeal No. 329/2021, the intimation
regarding grant of bail be sent to the complainant.
