Lko bench of HC rejects Cong MP’s anticipatory bail plea in rape case

Hindustan Times  

Amid pressure mounting for arrest, a Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court on Wednesday turned down the petition for anticipatory bail sought by Indian National Congress MP from Sitapur, Rakesh Rathore, who is accused of raping a 45-year-old woman for the past four years by promising to marry her and build her political career, confirmed senior prosecutions officials. A senior prosecution official confirmed the MP’s petition was turned down by the single bench of Justice Rajesh Singh Chauhan and asked him to surrender before the sessions’ court in two weeks. “Although the defense counsel requested the court to provide relief to the MP as the case has been registered after a delay of four years, the Additional Advocate General Vinod Kumar Shahi, who was contesting the case from the prosecution side, appealed the court to turn down the anticipatory petition stating that this is not the case where the accused should be provided any kind of immediate relief,” he said and added, “The defense counsel sought the time to surrender when the court turned down the petition on which the MP was asked to surrender before the sessions’ court with in two weeks’ time”. On January 23, the Sitapur MP/MLA court had turned down the anticipatory bail application of the INC MP Rakesh Rathore after hearing the argument between the prosecution and defense counsel.
