IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.38752 of 2009 KHURSHEED ALAM, s/o Late Md. Ismail, R/o village:- Kathaulia, P.S. Bidupur, District- Vaishali….. Petitioner. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4. 23.02.2010 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The only plea taken by the petitioner, husband for grant of anticipatory bail for an offence under Section 498 A I.P.C. is that he has always been prepared to keep his wife with all dignity and he is still prepared to do so. The court below has noted all these aspects of the matter in the impugned order and has found that it was the petitioner who had alleged that his wife was having a bad character and on that ground as also some other connected grounds she along with her children out of said wedlock was thrown out from the house of the petitioner. Thus it becomes clear that the story of compromise or keeping the wife with all dignity is a mere pretence of the petitioner and as such this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. That being so, this application is dismissed. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
