2. The petitioner is in custody in a case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 126, 115(2), 64, 351(2) and 352 of the BNS.

3. Allegation against the petitioner is to have committed sexual assault upon the wife of the informant.

5. Learned APP for the State opposes the prayer for

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.25759 of 2026(4) dt.20-07-2026 2/2 bail of the petitioner and submits that the petitioner has committed rape upon the informant's wife.

6. On perusal of the first information report, case diary and impugned order dated 24.03.2026, it appears that the petitioner had committed rape upon the wife of the informant, the medical report annexed with the case diary and during investigation in para-2, the informant in her restatement has not able to hear and speak properly and her statement was recorded in presence of her sister. The opinion of the medical report is reserved awaiting for FSL and the witnesses have supported the prosecution case and the offence is of very serious nature and such type of offences are increasing in society day by day, so I am not inclined to grant regular bail to the petitioner.

7. Accordingly, the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
