Petitioners Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & anr ----------- 7. 05.01.2009 Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the State. The petitioners apprehend arrest in a Police case under Sections 498A, 307 of the Penal Code and Sections 3 / 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. The submission is that petitioners 3 and 4 are not even family members and there are no specific attribution to them in the allegations. The allegation against petitioners 1 and 2 are inter alia for harassment for dowry and of assault causing injuries in the eyes.

Any application for regular bail on their behalf shall be considered by the Court below on its own merit without being prejudiced by the present order. In the facts and circumstances of the case, let the petitioners 3 and 4, above named, surrender in the court below within a period of four weeks from today when they shall be enlarged on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of CJM Katihar in Ajam Nagar PS Case No. 81 of 2007, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C.
