    Summary The Additional Sessions Judge granted anticipatory bail to Pravin Kashinath Palaste in a child marriage case (FIR No. 476/2024) under POCSO Act and IPC sections. The court found significant investigative gaps—particularly the failure to collect the victim's Aadhar card and conflicting statements from the victim and her mother regarding her age (initially shown as 18, later admitted as minor)—and concluded these issues should be adjudicated during trial rather than justifying custodial detention, especially given the accused's lack of criminal background. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
