IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.5082 of 2009 VIJAY KUMAR ROY Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 15.04.2009 Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel for the State and the learned Counsel for the informant. Originally a complaint case under Section 498A and other provisions of the Penal Code along with Section ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act was filed before the competent court at Khagaria. The petitioner was granted provisional anticipatory bail at that stage in Cr. Misc. No. 13930 of 2006. Subsequently an application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. was filed on behalf of the petitioner that the Court at Khagaria had no territorial jurisdiction on the allegations and the proceedings were stayed. The application for anticipatory bail was withdrawn as in view of the stay order there was no apprehension of arrest. The 482 Cr.P.C. application was allowed and the trial transferred to the competent court at Samastipur. The fresh prayer for anticipatory bail is in the aforesaid background. Learned Counsel for the informant opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. Considering that the petitioner was granted provisional anticipatory bail in the very same case while it was pending at Khagaria and that he is stated to have entered appearance in the maintenance matter also this Court considers it proper to direct that let the petitioner, above named, surrender in the court below within a period of four weeks from today when he 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 SDJM Samastipur in Alauli PS Case No. 128 of 2005, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. This Court further directs that since the reconciliation in the maintenance matter has failed the trial in the 498A matter be expedited so that it may be concluded at the earliest without any unnecessary delay or adjournment to either parties.
