The State Of Ap and Others: 2025 LiveLaw (AP) 77Judgments/Final OrdersRape Not Mere Physical Assault, Liberal Approach While Granting Bail Against Interest Of Society: Andhra Pradesh High CourtCase Title: Batha Vamsi v. The State Station House OfficerCase Number: CRIMINAL PETITION NO: 1986/2025Citation: 2025 LiveLaw (AP) 56The Andhra Pradesh High Court has held that the offence of rape cannot be considered as a mere physical assault, and adopting a liberal approach while granting bail in such cases goes against the interest of the society.In this regard, a Single Judge Bench of Justice T. Mallikarjuna Rao, observed, “The offence of rape is punishable by rigorous imprisonment for at least ten years, extendable to life imprisonment with a fine. Gang rape carries twenty years' rigorous imprisonment, extendable to life imprisonment with a fine. The offence alleged to have been committed by the petitioner is grave in nature. In fact, rape cannot be considered as a mere physical assault. In an occurrence of this type, the resistance from the victim cannot be expected, there is no allegation that the victim was inimical or was acting against the instigation of somebody else. Therefore, the cases relating to granting of bail in offences of rape are required to be approached differently…”Absence Of Prejudice Not Sole Ground To Brush Aside Principles Of Natural Justice: Andhra Pradesh High CourtCase Title: V.S.
