Court rejects bail of 4 in kidnapping, rape of minor | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Dec 6: Principal Sessions Judge Reasi Kamlesh Pandit rejected the bail application of four alleged accused namely Fareed Ahmed, Bashir Ahmed, Gulam Quadir and Abdul Qayoom allegedly involved in kidnapping and rape of a minor. Principal Sessions Judge Reasi Kamlesh Pandit after hearing both the sides observed that in this case, two accused persons are absconding against whom proceedings under Section 512 Cr.PC are in progress and charges are yet to be framed. There is also no change in the circumstances under which the earlier bail application of the accused persons/ applicants herein was rejected. Therefore, without discussing further merits of the case in this bail application, the Court is not convinced to exercise any discretion in favour of the accused persons/applicants herein in view of the statutory bar under Section 32 of the POCSO Act and also due to the gravity of the offence as well as in the interest of justice. The offences alleged to have been committed by the accused persons are very much against the ethos of our culture and against the interest of the public at large. Any sexual assault upon a girl child that too a minor, is termed as most heinous and dastardly acts having social, psychological, physical and emotional repercussions on the life and prospects of a victim. Therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the case and in view of the above detailed reasons, the bail application filed by the accused persons is out rightly rejected. —JNF |
