IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.5154 of 2010 1. Shankar Das @ Shanker Das , Son of Late Ramdeo Das. 2. Radha Devi, wife of Shankar Das @ Shanker Das. Both residents of Village- Madapur, P.S. Kurhani, District- Muzaffarpur......................................................Petitioners. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR...................................Opposite Party. ----------- 02. 18.03.2010. Heard Mr. Hari Kishore Thakur, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and Mr. Bipin Kumar, learned A. P. P. for the State. This application has been filed for grant of anticipatory bail on behalf of the above-named petitioners, against whom the case has been registered under Sections 366, 379, 506 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code. The prosecution case as per the maternal grand-father of the victim girl is that the girl was aged 15 years and Niraj Kumar @ Guddu enticed her away and was married in a temple where these two petitioners, being the parents of Niraj Kumar, were present. After going through the impugned order of the learned Sessions Judge, it appears that the victim girl has also alleged the allegation of taking away her forcibly against Niraj Kumar and these petitioners 2 were present while the marriage was being performed. My attention has also been drawn to annexure-2, which is a petition filed by the informant, that the matter has been settled between the parties. Considering the fact that the allegation against the present petitioners was only to be present in the marriage in the temple and the allegation of forcibly enticing away her against Niraj Kumar, who is not the petitioner herein and also considering the fact that the alleged occurrence was taken place on 03.06.2009 whereas complaint was lodged on 14.07.2009, the petitioners, namely, Shankar Das @ Shanker Das and Radha Devi are directed to be released on anticipatory bail in the event of their arrest or surrender within a period of twelve weeks from today in connection with Kazimohammadpur P.S. Case No.135 of 2009 on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Muzaffarpur, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 3 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
