    Case Summary: ABA/356/2026 Decision: The High Court rejected Sukhdeo Ramlal Chavan's anticipatory bail application for charges under Sections 74-75 of the Bhartiya Nyay Sanhita, 2023 and Section 8 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012. Key Reasoning: Judge Pravin S. Patil found that the victim (a 9-year-old child) had no motive to falsely accuse the applicant and that conclusions about the complaint's veracity cannot be drawn at the pre-investigation stage. Given the serious nature of child sexual abuse allegations, the court deemed judicial interference inappropriate, emphasizing that such offences are against society. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
