IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.6271 of 2010 SHAILENDRA KUMAR SHRIVASTAWA @ SHAILENDRA KUMAR SRIVASTTWA, Son of Late Shambhunath Prasad Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 12.04.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner, who is husband, apprehends his arrest in a case registered for the offence under Sections 498 (A) of the Indian Penal Code. There is allegation of demand of dowry and torture. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the instant case has been filed at belated stage. Learned counsel further submits that the petitioner is willing to keep the complainant with due care and affection. Having regard to the facts of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail. His prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. However, if he surrenders before the court below (Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Gopalganj in connection with Complaint case no. 2189 of 2008) within six weeks from today and seeks regular bail and the same would be disposed of preferably on the same day without being prejudiced by this order.
