IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.34535 of 2010 1. Raj Kishore Singh, son of Late Ram Narayan Singh 2. Bachchi Devi @ Bachi Devi, wife of Raj Kishore Singh 3. Pinki Kumari, wife of Arvind Kumar Singh Petitioners Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR OP ----------- 2/- 9.11.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the State. Petitioners, namely, Raj Kishore Singh, Bachchi Devi @ Bachi Devi and Pinki Kumari apprehend their arrest in connection with Motihari P.S. Case No.308 of 2009, registered under Sections 420, 494, 498 (A) of the Indian Penal Code and section ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Admittedly, the petitioner no.1 is the father-in- law, petitioner no.2 is mother-in-law and petitioner no.3 is second wife of informant’s husband. It is apparent from the perusal of the record that the marriage of informant was solemnized in the year 2004 but subsequently, her husband started neglecting her and lastly, she was ousted from her matrimonial home. It is also apparent from the record that the 2 husband of the informant solemnized his second marriage with petitioner no.3, namely, Pinki Kumari. Since the entire allegation centers round against the husband of the informant, I think it proper to grant the anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, this anticipatory bail petition is allowed. In the event of arrest/surrender within 30 days from receipt of the order, the petitioners, named above shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each in connection with Motihari P.S. Case No.308 of 2009 to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Motihari, East Champaran subject to condition as laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Cr. P.C. Let this order be communicated to the court concerned through FAX at the cost of the petitioners. Ashwini/- (Hemant Kumar Srivastava, J.)
