1.

This matter is taken up through hybrid mode.

2.

Heard  learned  counsel  for  the  petitioner  and  learned  Addl. Standing Counsel for the State.

3.

The petitioner is in custody since 18.09.2023 in connection with Khallikote  P.S.  Case  No.450  of  2023  corresponding  to  G.R.  Case No.115 of 2023 pending in the Court of learned Addl. District Judge- cum-Special  Judge  under  POCSO  Act,  Berhampur,  Ganjam  for  the alleged commission of offence under Sections 363/376(2)(n)/376(3)/500/506 of IPC read with Section 6 of POCSO Act.

4.

It  is  alleged  that  the  petitioner  kidnapped  the  daughter  of  the informant  and  took  her  to  different  places  where  he  forcefully committed  rape  on  her  several  times.  The  statement  of  the  victim recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C., copy of which is enclosed to the bail application, does not support the prosecution case.

5.

Considering the above facts, I am inclined to allow the prayer for bail.  Let  the  petitioner  be  released  on  bail  on  such  terms  and conditions  as  the  court  in  seisin  over  the  matter  may  deem  fit  and proper to  impose  including the condition  that he  shall personally appear before the trial Court on each date of posting of the case without fail.

6.

BLAPL is accordingly disposed of.

7.

Issue urgent certified copy as per rules.
