While rejecting the bail application, Court observed that It is generally seen that the teenage girls, who, cannot defend themselves on account of their physical weakness becomes readily and easily victim of sexual crimes at the hands of habitual and hardened criminals, who are hell bent to disturb peace of law loving & abiding citizens of the organized society. Criminals of serious and heinous crimes like the one as involved of forcible sexual intercourse with a minor girl are to be dealt with iron hands. Their liberty as generally claimed by them by taking the assistance of fundamental rights enshrined in constitution of India can safely be curtailed in the interest of society at large and rejected the bail application. -JNF |
