\n

Bombay High Court:<\/span> In a peculiar case under Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012<\/a> (\u201cPOCSO\u201d), where a man accused under Sections 11(i), (v), (vi) and 12, , was granted interim bail by the single-Judge Bench of Manish Pitale J.*<\/span>, who considered his previous bail for offences charged against him by the instant co-accused mother (\u201cco-accused\u201d) under Sections 376(2)(n)<\/a>, 307<\/a>, 509<\/a>, 323<\/a> and 506<\/a> of the Penal Code, 1860<\/a> (\u201cIPC\u201d) in a separate case. The accused was booked under POCSO along with the mother (co-accused) of the child for allegedly making the child record the sexual activities between him and the child\u2019s mother.<\/p>\n

The Court noted that the accused had not violated the conditions imposed upon him in the previous bail, and therefore, admitting his anticipatory bail application, granted the bail. In the light of the mother\u2019s involvement as the co-accused, the Court also directed the High Court Legal Services Authority to appoint an advocate to represent the child victim.<\/p>\n

Background<\/p>\n

The instant bail application was filed before the Court by the applicant (\u201caccused\u201d) in a peculiar matter of POCSO, where the mother of the victim child was the (\u201cco-accused\u201d).<\/p>\n

To cement his application, the accused had referred to an FIR vis-a-vis a separate case registered against him at the behest of co-accused, for the offences punishable under Sections 376(2)(n)<\/a>, 307<\/a>, 509<\/a>, 323<\/a> and 506<\/a> IPC<\/a>, in which he had been granted regular bail by the Sessions Court.<\/p>\n

Decision of the Court<\/p>\n

The Court perused the material on record and found that the Sessions Court that had granted accused the previous bail, had that the accused and the co-accused, both married individuals, prima facie<\/span> appeared to be in an extra-marital relationship with one another.<\/p>\n

The Court further found the charges against both accused were under Section 34<\/a> IPC<\/a>, and Sections 11(i), (v), (vi)<\/a> and 12<\/a> of the POCSO Act<\/a>, and that the (victim) child was given a mobile phone by their mother to record the sexual activities that the accused and the mother were indulging in.<\/p>\n

The Court was shocked to learn such allegations made against the co-accused and noted that she had not been taken into custody. Given the fact that the accused when granted bail earlier, had not violated any of the conditions imposed upon him, the Court was inclined to consider the instant anticipatory bail, if the accused fulfils the conditions so imposed upon him, should the instant bail be granted.<\/p>\n

Further, taking note of the mother\u2019s alleged involvement and being the co-accused, the Court considered it appropriate to direct the High Court Legal Services Authority to appoint an advocate from their panel to represent the victim.<\/p>\n

In the light of the peculiarity of the facts and circumstances of the case, the Court passed the following interim order:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The accused was granted bail on furnishing PR (personal recognisance) Bond of Rs. 25,000<\/li>\n
  2. The accused shall not contact the victim child in any manner<\/li>\n
  3. The accused shall not influence the informant, the witnesses, or any other persons concerned with the case<\/li>\n
  4. \n

    The accused shall co-operate with the investigation and court proceedings<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    And other conditions were imposed. The Court stated that the bail of the accused shall be cancelled should the accused violate any of the conditions so imposed upon him.<\/p>\n
