    Case Summary: Cr.A(DB) 161/2026 - Praveen Murmu v. State of Jharkhand Outcome: Bail Rejected Praveen Murmu's bail application during appeal was rejected by the High Court of Jharkhand. Murmu was convicted under IPC Section 376(D) and POCSO Act Section 6 for gang rape and sentenced to 25 years RI plus Rs.50,000 fine. Despite arguments that the victim failed to identify him, the court found the victim's mother identified the appellant and medical evidence corroborated the brutal rape. The court rejected bail given the serious nature of offences. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
