IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.4624 of 2010 1. JAGDAMBA PD.MEHTA 2. Urmila Devi 3. Kajal Kumari Versus The STATE OF BIHAR with Cr.Misc. No.7188 of 2010 PAWAN KUMAR Versus The STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 08.03.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that complainant’s marriage is not acceptable legally or factually. Admittedly, petitioner in Cr. Misc. No. 7188 of 2010 was already married either some ceremony took place or not but in both cases no status of wife can be given. Hindu Marriage Act did not accept prevailing all the forms for marriage and never allowed the boy and girl to elope and come before a temple for some ceremony giving name of marriage and once relation of wife and husband is denied, no question arises about constituting any offence under Section 498A of I.P.C. for refusal of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the prayer of the petitioners is allowed. In the event of arrest or surrender within one month from the date of receipt/production of a 2 copy of this order in connection with Pasraha P.S. Case No. 60 of 2009, above named petitioners shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of C.J.M., Khagaria subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of Cr. P.C. Shail ( Mandhata Singh, J.)
