Bail for minor

How can you prove that the boy (accused) is 17 years old ?

Even POSCO Act / rape case can be registered and proceeded against a 17 year old accused.

It is better to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts/ documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.

 your query is little confused. . so consult local lawyer and act accordingly

Get the copy of the document where the boy is asserting his age is 17, ask the PP to challenge it. Apart why you are interested in his age as I believe the case has been booked under POSCO Act against all the accused.

Where the age of the victim is between seventeen and eighteen years, invocation of the POCSO Act would be justified only if thereis clinching evidence. 

Yes, only a local advocate can help. At this stage, the real issue is whether there was rape or attempted rape and not the age of the accused.

Engage a local Advocate and deal with the case.

Thank you Everyone for your replies.

When the co-accused minors have been enlarged on bail, this boy also can be enlarged on bail on the same grounds. 

Court generally will incline to consider the parity among the accused if the offence is common and reported to have committed by all of them  hence there is no justification to reject one person's bail application alone. 

"Section 102. (JJ Act)Revision.- The High Court may, at any time, either on its own motion or on an application received in this behalf, call for the record of any proceeding in which any Committee or Board or Children's Court, or Court has passed an order, for the purpose of satisfying itself as to the legality or propriety of any such order and may pass such order in relation thereto as it thinks fit:

You may discuss with your lawyer at length and probe the possibilities for getting him enlarged on bail
