#contradictory statements

Allahabad HC granted bail under POCSO and BNS despite contradictory victim statements and absence of medico-legal report, citing prolonged trial and jail overcrowding. The court emphasized cooperation undertakings and no criminal history as key factors in the decision.

Allahabad HC grants bail under Section 483 BNSS, emphasizing that delayed FIR by 1.5 years and material contradictions in victim statements undermine prosecution's case. The ruling underscores that absence of digital evidence and parity with co-accused bail orders tilt the balance in favor of liberty, despite serious POCSO allegations involving extortion.
