IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.42609 of 2009 BALESHWAR PASWAN Son of Sukdeo Paswan Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 15.02.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner, who is husband, apprehends arrest in a case registered for offence under Section 498 A of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel submits that the instant case was filed on 24.04.2009 whereas petitioner has filed a case against the father of the complainant earlier on 22.04.2009 for the offence under Sections 341, 323, 379, 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel further submits that petitioner is still willing to keep the complainant with due care and dignity. Having heard the counsel for the parties, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. However he will surrender before the court below (Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Kishanganj in Complaint case no. 467 C of 2009) and seek regular bail within a month of receipt of order there, which would be disposed of preferably on the same day also taking into consideration the case earlier filed by the petitioner without being prejudiced by this order. Uday/ (Samarendra Pratap Singh, J.)
