Arrested under charges if IPC 376(2)n, 506
09-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
The offence of committing rape repeatedly on the same woman, under Section 376(2)(n) IPC is punishable with imprisonment for a term of not less than ten years, but which may extend to life imprisonment.
The grant of bail in a case under Section 376(2)(n) IPC is a matter of discretion for the court. However, given the seriousness of the offence, the chances of a man getting bail in such a case may be low. The court may consider several factors while deciding on the bail application, including the nature and gravity of the offence, the evidence against the accused, the likelihood of the accused tampering with evidence or influencing witnesses, and the possibility of the accused absconding if released on bail.
In some cases, the court may grant bail if it is satisfied that the accused is not likely to abscond or tamper with evidence, or if the prosecution case is weak. However, it is important to note that each case is decided on its merits, and there is no guarantee of bail in any particular case.
