Summary The court rejected the anticipatory bail application of a 15-year-old petitioner accused of enticing and marrying a 16-year-old girl under the POCSO Act and IPC sections. The court found that the petitioner had already surrendered by appearing before it for juvenility determination, thereby eliminating any genuine apprehension of arrest. After declaring the petitioner a juvenile, the case was transferred to the Juvenile Justice Board, which is the appropriate forum to decide his release under Section 12 of the Juvenile Justice Act based on reformative principles. The court emphasized that both children were minors of comparable age acting under emotional immaturity, warranting a child-centric, protective approach rather than strict criminal liability. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
