Petitioner is an accused in a case registered for the offences under Sections 498A of the Indian Penal Code and section 3/ 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the present complaint has been filed by the brother of the victim lady for ulterior purposes since the petitioner has filed a petition for restitution of conjugal rights. Learned counsel for the informant submits that the allegations have been attributed against the petitioner with regard to his torture for demand of Rs. 2.5 laks. It is further submitted that a case for maintenance was filed in which the petitioner was directed to pay a sum of Rs. 500/- per month, which is not being paid.
