His daughter Ms X whose age is 14 years went missing from that day and he was having apprehension that accused has enticed and abducted her with the intention to commit rape upon her. He along with his family searched for his daughter, but she could not be found.

A wireless massage of the incident was sent to all police stations, site map was prepared, statements of witnesses were recorded. During investigation, Police Station Budgam during Naka duty recovered the prosecutrix from the possession of accused when the duo were travelling on the motor cycle bearing registration no. JK01J 6951 towards airport in suspicious circumstances. As such, spot sketch of place of recovery was prepared, statements of witnesses were recorded and accused was arrested. The medical examination of prosecutrix was got conducted by PW-8 and report obtained. As per the report, the prosecutrix has conceived a fetus of 10 months and 6 days.

On 15.10.2016 the complainant lodged an application with police station to the effect that on 14.10.2016 while sweeping her home, the prosecutrix slipped from the staircase, resulting which, her fetus was abortioned. Investigation of the case established offences u/ss 361, 363, 376 RPC as against the accused. Court after hearing both the sides observed that as per the school certificate, she was a minor even at the time of commission of alleged offence. Moreover, the statements of witnesses of the prosecution so far recorded does not in any manner inspire the court to form an opinion that the accused person has not committed any offence, or he may not be held guilty or convicted. There is every scope in both way he may be convicted or acquitted after full trial and meticulous analysis of the evidence as per law. So the concession of the bail cannot be granted in favour of the petitioner for the reasons ascribed herein before.
