Then she was taken to a house where she was kept for a few days. At the house, she was raped by the applicant along with the co-accused, Mukesh. The applicant\u2019s wife physically assaulted the victim and threatened her with dire consequences in terms of social backlash and the blot on her career resultant of the act. One day post this incident, the victim somehow managed to inform her mother about her whereabouts after figuring out the name of the village she was being kept in. Later, the victim was forcibly carried to the matrimonial home of Daichi, the co-accused\u2019s wife where she was shut inside a room subsequent to her being told to marry the co-accused\u2019s brother, Babban. Thereafter, she was raped by Babban. At that very moment, a call from the sister of the co-accused was received stating that police had turned up at her place. On 23-09-2019 the applicant and the co-accused drugged her and then took her to Farrukhabad, when somebody called up her brother who took her home. Afterward, the victim\u2019s family placed a call to the police but no action was taken.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Applicant\u2019s counsel, Ravi Kumar Singh has heavily denied this version contending that the applicant has been falsely implicated in a bogus case as the aforementioned FIR is the result of an ongoing monetary dispute between the victim and the co-accused. The counsel added that FIR has been lodged after a delay of about five months as the date of occurrence is 06-09-2019 while the FIR has been filed on 03-02-2020. He has vouched for his client stating that the applicant would not misuse the liberty and co-operate with the investigation if released on bail.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The counsel for the respondent, G.P. Singh, has vehemently opposed the applicant\u2019s prayer submitting that the victim\u2019s statement has supported the prosecution\u2019s version of facts to which the applicant\u2019s counsel retorted submitting that there is variation in the place of occurrence of the incident as per the victim\u2019s statement and the FIR. As per the FIR, the rape was committed in village Alam whereas in the statement the place of occurrence has been mentioned as village Purthi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After careful perusal of the facts, circumstance and the arguments advanced, the Court observed that there is an inordinate delay in filing of the FIR without any justifiable cause and that the conduct of the victim\u2019s family does not \u201c<em>inspire confidence\u201d <\/em>with respect to the FIR. The Court also noted the complete lack of criminal history on part of the applicant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In view of the above, the application had been allowed granting the relief of anticipatory bail to the applicant. Also, the Investigation Officer has been directed to conclude the investigation expeditiously preferably within three months. [Pratap v.
