Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner herein was taken into custody in the aforesaid FIR on 26.07.2017. It is submitted that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is also contended that the only allegation in the said FIR against the petitioner is that he gave liquor to the prosecutrix. It is further contended that there are no other allegations owing to Section 376 that has been attributed to him. It is also submitted that out of 14 cited witnesses, only two have been examined and conclusion of trial will take sufficient time, therefore, the petitioner is entitled to be enlarged on bail. 3. Per contra, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent- State, on instructions from the Investigating Officer, opposes the grant of regular bail to the petitioner, while submitting that offences alleged against the petitioner are serious in nature, however, does not dispute the fact that two witnesses out of fourteen have been examined. 4. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. 5. Since the trial is likely to take some time and in view of the fact that that the petitioner herein has been in custody since 26.07.2017, no useful purpose would be served in keeping the petitioner behind bars. At this stage, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the instant petition is allowed and the petitioner is directed to be released on regular bail on execution of adequate personal bond and surety bond to the satisfaction of concerned trial Court/Duty Magistrate.
