    The High Court of Orissa granted bail to Manas Ranjan Nayak, accused of rape and distributing obscene photographs under BNS sections 296/64(2)(m)/351(3) and IT Act sections 67/67-A, after finding minimal risk of witness tampering since the victim had already testified. The court ordered bail on Rs. 50,000 bond with two sureties, considering his nearly one-year pre-trial custody and presumption of innocence, subject to mandatory court attendance.
