MUJLIMA KHATOON Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 21.10.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. The petitioners, who are the husband and family members, apprehend arrest in a complaint case under Sections 498A of the Penal Code and Section 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. The allegations concerned the aspect of human lives for their differences. There are no allegations of any serious or heinous assault. The order of rejection notices the willingness on the part of the husband and the wife to revive matrimonial harmony. The court below rejects the application without application of mind, without any reasons by simply directing that it would be better for the petitioner to surrender and if there is a compromise then bail may be granted. Little did the court realize that what the parties were seeking to do, to remedy their human lives, was sought to be set off by the court below. The present order is in the teeth of the guidelines laid down by this court for grant of bail in matrimonial matters. The Court refrains any observation at this stage.
