IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.28342 of 2008 SHRADHA DEVI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 20/8/2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The prayer for anticipatory bail in a prosecution under Sections- 406, 420 of I.P.C. and ¾ of Dowry Prohibition Act was rejected earlier by this Court. Subsequently there has been a compromise between the parties and a proper application was filed when the O.P. was also present and who is also represented today before this Court. The compromise was supported there and is supported here also. The offences are compoundable with the leave of the Court. In view of the subsequent development, this Court would have thought the court below to exercise its discretion and shall not simply absolve itself of its duties. Let the petitioner Shradha Devi surrender before the court below within four weeks when he shall be enlarged on anticipatory bail upon furnishing the bail-bonds of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) along with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of S.D.J.M., Bikramganj (Rohtas) in Complaint Case No.344/07.
