Jadolal Sah, a 65-year-old man, sought bail from the Patna High Court in connection with a case registered at Mahila P.S., Sheohar, alleging that he, along with his son (the victim's father) and another co-accused (the victim's uncle), committed rape upon an 11-year-old minor girl at knifepoint. The petitioner's counsel argued that the victim's statements were contradictory, the medical report showed no signs of force, and that no specific penetration was alleged, hence no rape was made out. The State and opposite party opposed bail, relying on Section 29 of the POCSO Act (presumption of guilt), the victim's statements under Sections 180 and 183 BNSS, the Supreme Court's ruling in Attorney General for India vs. Satish (2021) that penetration of the penis is not required to constitute rape, and the definition of rape under Section 63 BNS. The Court, relying on the victim's statements and Supreme Court precedents emphasising sensitivity in sexual crime cases against minors, declined to grant bail to the petitioner.
