The case alleges sexual relations on a false promise of marriage, forced termination of pregnancy, and criminal intimidation. Additional Sessions Judge Neeta S. Anekar allowed the bail on a personal bond of Rs 50,000 with one or two sureties. The court noted that the complainant, an educated and socially active woman, continued the relationship even after the first alleged termination, indicating a prima facie consensual relationship. Whether the promise of marriage was false from the start will be decided at trial. Kate denies the allegations, calling the relationship consensual. He must cooperate with the investigation and not contact the complainant. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Amboli Police, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Devendra Kate, Mumbai Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/api-devendra-kate-gets-anticipatory-bail-in-sexual-assault-case/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
