The Sessions Judge allowed the bail petition of Kundan Kumar Ray, who was accused of abducting a 16-year-old girl with intent to marry her under BNS sections 137(2) and 96. The court's decision was based primarily on the victim's statement under BNSS section 183, in which she denied the kidnapping allegations and did not support the prosecution case, combined with the petitioner's clean criminal record and period of custody already undergone. The accused was released on bail of Rs. 50,000 with two sureties of equal amount, subject to conditions including cooperation with investigation and non-interference with witnesses.
