IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.29953 of 2010 DHARAMNATH PRASAD Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 18.08.2010 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the state. Admittedly, the petitioner is husband of the complainant and marriage has taken place in the year, 2002 but subsequently, the petitioner and his family members started demanding one motorcycle in dowry and on non-fulfillment of demand, they subjected the complainant to cruelty in both ways; mentally and physically. Subsequently, the complainant was ousted from her matrimonial house. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the complainant herself does not want to lead her conjugal life with the petitioner and that was the reason she did not appear before the learned court below in spite of notice sent to her. His further contention is that admittedly the marriage has taken place in the year, 2002 and the Complaint Case was filed in the year, 2008, i.e. after six years of the marriage and between the aforesaid period, she led her conjugal life with the petitioner. In course of hearing, learned counsel for the 2 petitioner states that the petitioner is ready to keep the complainant with full honour and dignity. In view of the aforesaid submissions, the petitioner, Dharamnath Prasad is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each in connection with Complaint Case No. 10/08 (Tr. No. 1838/10) to the satisfaction of C.J.M. Gopalganj. However, the learned court below is directed to take steps for reconciliation between the parties and if any hurdle is created by the petitioner in reconciliation proceeding, in that event, the learned court below shall be at liberty to cancel the bail bonds of the petitioner in accordance with law.
