IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16522 of 2009 MANOJ MANDAL, son of Trivoni Mandal, resident of village-Mohjan , P.S.-Falka, District-Katihar ----------------Petitioner. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. Shanti Devi, D/o Gnaga Mandal, W/o Manoj Mandal, resident of vill.- Shabda, P.S.-Falka, Distt.-Katihar-----------------------Opp. Parties. ----------- 2. 18.5.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. It is submitted that vague relation is there. Family members are alleged for demand and causing cruelty and rest have been allowed bail. But, in my view, husband cannot be equated with the rest of the family members. He is solely responsible for the affairs even torture caused upon the wife. Prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected. However, petitioner is directed to surrender in the court below, i.e., S.D.J.M., Katihar, in connection with Complaint Case no.874 of 2008 and pray for regular bail which shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced by the rejection order of this Court.
