IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16814 of 2008 RAMA SHANKAR URAON Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 7-5-2008 This is an application for the grant of regular bail in a case under section 498 A of the Indian Penal Code. Shanti Devi lodged FIR against the petitioner who is her husband, alleging therein that she was married with the petitioner about 25 years ago and she has got three sons and one daughter. It is alleged that the petitioner has developed illicit relation with his Bhavi whose husband is traceless and as a result he is not maintaining her and her children. It is alleged that she was driven out from the house. Learned lawyer for the petitioner submits that of course the petitioner looks after his Bhavi as his elder brother is traceless and for that reason the complainant who was married 25 years ago and had 3 sons and 1 daughter filed the present case with false and frivolous allegation. He submits that the complainant is living in the house of the petitioner and the allegation of driving out from the house stands falsified. He, therefore, prays for grant of bail. Considering the submissions made together with the allegation, petitioner Rama Shankar Uraon is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10, 000/- with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bagaha, (West Champaran) in Semra P S Case No. 78/2007. rkp (Anwar Ahmad, J) - 2 -
