ABDUL QAYYUM NIAZI versus STATE


Section 497 of the Conduct Rule (XLV of 1860), Section of AA, guarantees that the molesting of the complainant's daughter prompted the complainant to bring a case against him for raising a child, a previous enmity between the parties. Not available, there is no reason for false accusations of being a responsible businessman and molesting a girl, it can have a purpose of making false accusations as well as retaliation against the accused by the girl's father. I also denied being guilty of the crime.

ORDER

According to the allegations the petitioner used to tease the daughter of the complainant who is a student of 8th Class for which the complainant reprimanded the petitioner. It is alleged that in retaliation the petitioner picked up Khaliqur Rahman aged 2 years grand‑son of the complainant and left him only when he was given a chase by the father of the child and other witnesses.

The learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the allegations of an offence under section 364‑A, P.P.C. against the petitioner are false and that the case has been made out only on account of the teasing of the girl by the petitioner. I am afraid, I find no force in this argument particularly when it is an admitted position that there is no previous enmity between the parties. The complainant is said to be a responsible businessman and no reason has been given for false implication of the present petitioner. The teasing of the girl by the petitioner can both be a motive for false implication as well as a motive for the petitioner to commit the offence in retaliation of the reprimand being given to him. It, therefore, does not help the petitioner for his prayer for grant of bail.

In view of the above considerations, the petitioner does not deserve any special consideration. The application is rejected.

M. Y. H./3186/L Bail refused.
