IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.17490 of 2009 BABY DEVI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02 02.09.2009 Heard both sides. Petitioner, who is married Nanad of the victim, has approached this Court seeking anticipatory bail in a case instituted under Sections 498A, 304B, 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code and ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act. True it is that victim was done to death in the matrimonial home in a very suspicious circumstance, within seven years of her marriage. But the petitioner, who is already married in the year, 1998, appears to have been purposely roped in the present case. Learned counsel draws attention of the Court to the accused column of F.I.R. to demonstrate that although she was married in the year 1998 and living at sasural but purposely this fact was suppressed as she has been made accused as Baby Devi, D/o Late Atal Bihari Tiwari. It is next contended that going by the F.I.R. efforts were made by the in-laws to afford the victim medical assistance. 2 Having considered the submission, this Court is persuaded to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. In the facts and circumstances of the case, above named petitioner, in the event of arrest or surrender in the court below within four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhojpur at Ara in connection with Ara Town P.S. Case No. 298 of 2008 , subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure. P.K. (K.K. Mandal, J.)
