    The Jharkhand High Court granted bail to 22-year-old Umesh Mahto in a rape case (BNS Section 70(1)), finding insufficient evidence against him. The court noted he was not named in the FIR, was mentioned only in a co-accused's confession, never underwent TIP identification, and allegedly only participated in abducting the victim—not in the actual rape. Bail was set at Rs. 25,000 with two sureties of equal amount, subject to six conditions including non-interference with the victim and mandatory court attendance. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
