S. Pujahari, J

This matter is taken up by video conferencing mode.

It appears from the materials available on record that the Petitioner/Appellant has been convicted and sentenced to undergo R.I. for a period of three

years and to pay fine of Rs.1,000/-, in default, to undergo further R.I. for a period of fifteen days for commission of the offence under Section 363 of

the I.P.C. and to undergo R.I. for ten years and to pay fine of Rs.10,000/-, in default, to undergo further R.I. for one month for commission of the

offence punishable under Section 6 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012 vide judgment of conviction and order of sentence

passed by the learned Sessions-cum-Special Judge, Nayagarh in T.R. No.12 of 2015.

Considering the facts and submissions made, especially the evidence of the victim, heinousness and seriousness of the

offence in which the Petitioner/Appellant is convicted, sentence imposed, andal so the judgment of conviction prima facie cannot be said

to be perverse, I am not inclined to release the Petitioner/Appellant on bail.

Accordingly, prayer for bail of the Petitioner/Appellant stands rejected.

The I.A. stands disposed of being dismissed.

As the restrictions due to resurgence of COVID-19 situation are continuing, learned counsel for the parties may utilize a printout of the order available
