IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr Misc No 18337 of 2009 Nitin Mukesh Jha, son of Manohar Jha, resident of Village - Keshawe, Police Station - Barauni, District - Begusarai, presently Prabha Sadan - 4567, Sector - 23A, Gurgaon (Haryana) - Petitioner Versus State of Bihar - Opposite Party W I T H Cr Misc No 13096 of 2009 1) Smt. Prabha Devi, wife of Manohar Jha 2) Manohar Jha, son of late Babu Nandan Jha @ Devnandan Jha, both residents of Village - Keshawe, P S - Barauni, District - Begusarai, presently residing at Prabha Sadan, 4567, Sector - 23A, Gurgaon (Haryana) - Petitioners Versus State of Bihar - Opposite Party ----------- 2 27.05.2009 The complainant has appeared suo motu to oppose this application. This, in my view, itself establishes the malice. Petitioners may be right in submitting that how can a family accept a lady who prosecutes not only her husband but her in-laws. The lady is well educated and employed which is causing the whole problem. The learned counsel for the petitioners has referred to the entire complaint which makes no mention that not only the lady but her parents, her in-laws and her husband all are residents of Delhi/Gurgaon. They are all working there. There is not a whisper in this regard in the complaint. The complaint has been dressed up in a manner to show that after marriage, she was brought to her village home and tortured and thrown out from village home which, on the face of it, appears to be far from truth. Petitioners may be right in submitting that as petitioner Nitin Mukesh Jha gave up his job to complete his engineering studies and the wife was the earning member then this upset the balance. The father-in-law is in a very high position in Gas Authorities of India 2 Limited which again is not mentioned in the complaint. It is a clash of egos, as submitted by the petitioners. This Court only hopes that for running a family, egos should be set aside and parties should adopt conciliatory measure instead of getting into battle in Court which only spoils relationship and never builds relationship. In the facts and circumstances of the case, if the petitioners Nitin Mukesh Jha, the husband, Smt Prabha Devi, the mother-in-law of the complainant and Manohar Jha, the father-in-law of the complainant surrender before the Court below within four weeks from today, they shall be released on bail on each of them furnishing bonds of Rs 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Subdivisional Judicial Magistrate, Begusarai in Complaint Case No 891 © of 2008 subject to all conditions as laid down in Section 438 (2) of Criminal Procedure Code.
