IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.7744 of 2010 KUNAL KUMAR SON OF LATE MAHENDRA SAO, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE BARAH, POLICE STATION- RANI TALAB (BIKRAM) DISTRICT- PATNA Versus 1. STATE OF BIHAR 2. RINKI KUMARI DAUGHTER OF SRI NARENDRA SAO, WIFE OF KUNAL KUMAR, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE DARIYAPUR, P.S. BIHTA, DISTRICT- PATNA ******** 9 14.03.2011 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The offence alleged is under Sections 498A and 323 of the Indian Penal Code. There is allegation of demand of dowry and cruelty on the part of the petitioner. Learned counsel for the opposite party submits that due to the brutal assault on account of the non- fulfillment of the demand the opposite party was even hospitalized. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case especially the nature of allegation levelled against the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant of the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. His prayer for grant of bail is, accordingly, rejected. However, in case petitioner, on surrender, files an application for grant of bail in the Court below, the same shall be considered in accordance with law on its own merit without being prejudiced by the present order.
