The Gujarat High Court granted anticipatory bail to Patel Rahulkumar Kirtibhai in a case involving allegations of non-consensual physical relations, intimate video recording, and extortion, finding the FIR appeared to be an afterthought motivated by reputational concerns after an intimate video was made viral by a third party, and noting inconsistencies between the victim's earlier police application (which acknowledged a consensual five-year relationship) and her later FIR allegations. The applicant was released on bail with conditions including cooperation with investigation, non-tampering with evidence, residence restriction, and a personal bond of Rs. 10,000 with one surety of equal amount. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
