2023 at about 7:30 PM but the complaint lodged after lapse
4
of two days i.e 28-11-2023, hence there is a inordinate

GROUNDS
7. It is submitted that the respondent police has registered a
false case against this petitioner and falsely implicated
without any concrete evidence, but only in order to avoid
further risk in the hands of the higher authorities especially
such type of alleged complainants come in to play
irrespective of whether genuine or fictious. It is a matter of
trial hence the petitioner became victim of circumstances
and nothing to do.
8. It is submitted that the plain reading of the complainant
itself creates serious doubt over the prosecution as it is
filled with apparent contradictions and unbelievable fiction,
which is not believable and a frivolous one, prepared at the
instruction of some inimical person with an sole motive to
harass the petitioner,
9. It is submitted that the petitioner has not kidnaped her
abducted the victim girl and never kept her in said room
located at murugamalla and he never committed said acts
on the victim girl, in fact the victim father who is not
biological father of victim girl though he is an step father
6
and he was not a cordial relationship with a petitioner
because he was suspected a doubt on petitioner and his
wife who having a strain relationship, in this regard he
developed grudge against the petitioner and also use to
pick quarrel with his wife and victim girl to not speak with
petitioner, but there were not headed his words as such
there was a animosity exist between petitioner, so he was
searching an opportunity to make suffer and teach a lesson
to the petitioner, ultimately he saw the golden opportunity
since the victim left the house after conflict with her step
father and they gathered a have clue about when victim
taken shelter, subsequently the said step father collided
with some local persons went to murugamalla daraga and
traced the victim and brought back to the house and
suspected doubt on petitioner and his wife invited petitioner
to SDPI office and made a bad allegations and instigated
SDPI workers to assault in a result there was tussle between
petitioner and complainant in a due course some SDPI
persons meddle but petitioner was beaten and suffered a
injuries on his head and after the story of tracing petitioner
with victim at muragamalla.
10. It is submitted that the victim step father always suspected
a doubt on victim mother because the victim mother
continuously talking with petitioner over phone and
petitioner also visiting is house on regular intervals despite
7
his objection the petitioner continued his acts towards his
wife which made the complainant/step father upset and he
was so anxious, and disturb, so he made a mind to teach a
lesson and take revenge, as such he pressurized victim girl
to make adverse statement against the petitioner, and also
blackmail the victim girl to narrate the imaginary story
against the petitioner, hence no option left the victim has
given contradictory statements before the competent
authorities.
11. It is submitted that the after picking quarrel with
complainant/step father she left the house and taken
shelter at muragamalla daraga, because the victim and her
family occasionally used to visit the said darga on regular
occasions , as such she was very familiar to visit the said
place and stayed alone for few days though petitioner
accompanied with here, however the complainant and his
few local associates approached the petitioner in his house
and questioned where about the victim girl in which there
was Galata took place between them, his in a result the
petitioner was beaten by complainant and his henchmen,
in a result he was suffered injuries on head, in a meantime
victim mother intervene and pacified the complainant and
his friends and she only reveal that the victim is staying at
murugamalla darga, therefore the complainant went to
murugamalla along with victim mother, petitioner and few
8
of his henchmen to murugamalla and brought back the
victim to the police station and insisted to the respondent
police to honour his claim, but complainant/step father
used his muzzle power as well as political influence,
thereby the respondent police has no option left arrested to
the petitioner and he was so panic and felt palpitation
therefore he was sent to hospital for medical treatment.
12. It is submitted that the victim sent to remand home and
next day she was brought to police station where, in
complainant and his henchmen created fear atmosphere in
the mind of victim girl and threatened to narrate the story
as they projected against the petitioner, hence she was
helpless & gave different and contradictory statement
before police, doctor, and magistrate, ultimately petitioner
became scape goat to the circumstances.
13. It is submitted that the victim stated before the police the
petitioner shown his hand on her face in which she lost her
consciousness, further under section 164 of CRPC the victim
stated before the magistrate the petitioner applied some
substance in a kerchief and covered her face in which she
lost consciousness, further the victim narrate before the
doctor the petitioner forcefully made her to drink juice in
which she fainted so this 3 crucial contradictory theory of
9
victim girl itself suffice there was no such incident taken
place as per the prosecution case, as such the victim girl
keep on changing her version in order to rope the petitioner
in the false case and succeeded too.
14. It is submitted that the IO has not enquired the adjacent
building owner at the incident place and the house owner
also not enquired and no statement also recorded to
corroborate the prosecution case, in order to hold the victim
was illegally kept for 4 days in that house this crucial
lacuna, lapses, infirmity itself sufficient to draw an inference
that petitioner has not kidnapped, abducted, & kept illegally
in the alleged premises, hence this crucial grounds itself
sufficient to grant bail.
15. It is submitted that the investigation officer collected CDR
pertaining to phone calls between petitioner and victim
parents which shows there was continued, abundant
phone calls and conversation, it is pertinent to note the
victim was missing on 26-11-2023 at about 7:30 PM
onwards, but as per the CDR call details it appears on 26-
11-2023 morning to night 11 PM there was phone calls
between the petitioner and victim mother, under such it
creates a serious doubt the victim was not kidnapped by
the petitioner, if really the petitioner has kidnapped victim
girl on said day at about 7:30 PM then there is no question
10
of a phone calls on the said day till 11PM night, because as
per the victim statement she was unconscious from 7:30 PM
to next day morning so to whom the petitioner kept on
talking over the phone which was belong to victim mother,
as a matter of fact on the said day when victim left the
house an account of quarrel with her step father in which
the petitioner, victim mother as well as mother relatives
made searched everywhere in this regard there was a
phone calls between petitioner and victim mother so this
precious aspect itself indicates the victim girl on behest of
her step father and henchmen mislead IO to miffed and
trouble the petitioner.
16. It is submitted that as per the 164 statement when she was
kept in the house at muragamalla some of petitioner friends
use to visit said house in which she pleaded to set freed her
from the clutches of petitioner, but they were ignored and
not helped her in this regard the IO has not interrogated
those friends of the petitioner to corroborate the version of
the victim girl this aspect itself suffice overall the victim and
her step father colliding with henchmen misuse the special
POCSO ACT & falsely roped petitioner in the alleged instant
case.
17. It is submitted that all the facts and circumstances itself
clears that the petitioner is innocent. Hence being innocent
11
his personal liberty shall not deprived, even the innocent
should not suffer by way of incarceration merely on
suspicious and veracity of truth can be ascertained only
when trial is complete. Which is not possible to conclude
near future days though it may take long time. More so if
the petitioner has committed such an offence certainly he
would have been absconded for reasonable period to avoid
legal action against him and could have been applied for
anticipatory bail, but he has not done so this aspect itself
indicate that he has no nexus to alleged offences.
18. It is submitted that the as per apex court guide line bail is
rule and jail is exception. Until the completion of trail the
petitioner presumes to be innocent and merely on
suspecting doubt the innocent should not be detain or
incarcerate in jail by way of depriving their liberty which
guaranteed in Indian constitution. More over this petitioner
is in judicial custody since from the date of arrest and
undergoing pretrial punishment which in unwarranted in
law, through there is no prima facie case and incriminating
evidence against him.
19. It is submitted that the petitioner has no criminal
antecedents prior to this false, such being he will not
abscond or evade the trial the petitioner undertakes that he
12
will not hamper or tamper the witness and will not leave the
jurisdiction without the permission of trial court.
20. It is submitted that, the petitioner is having respectful
parents, since the day of his arrest his mother and sister
health is deteriorating day by day, such being at the
movement he is facing lot of hardship and suffering from
mental agony and this petitioner is only person to take care
of his family and permanent resident of address mentioned
in remand application and he is deeply rooted in society
and tied up with community. Hence he will not abscond or
evade during trail.
21. It is submitted that the petitioner is ready to abide all the
terms and conditions which may be imposed by this Hon’ble
court and willing to offer surety to ensure his regular
presence before the trial court on all future dates of hearing
until the disposal of the prosecution case.
22. It is submitted that petitioner counsel seek crave leave of
this Hon’ble court to make additional grounds at the time of
arguments.
