IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.45997 of 2008 AHMAD HUSSAIN @ MD.AHMAD son of Md.Jummen, resident of village- Hayatpur Tola, Kamalpur, P.S.Araria R.S., Dist.-Araria Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 27.1.2009. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a complaint case which has been lodged under section 498A and some other sections of the Indian Penal Code and section ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act. According to the allegation, the complainant was married with the petitioner about two years ago and subsequently she was being subjected to torture on account of her inability to bring additional dowry demand. Submission is that the petitioner was kidnapped and he was forced to marry with the complainant. In this connection father of the petitioner filed a case being Araria P.S.Case No.498 of 2007 for the offence under sections 341, 365 and 120B of the Indian Penal Code. Thereafter matter was compromised and a compromise petition has been filed in the court below which is annexure-2 to this application It appears from compromise petition, annexure-2, that it was filed in the court below on 24.8.2007 and the bail matter of the petitioner was disposed of on 19.9.2008 but there is no mention about the compromise petition in the impugned order. It further appears that the father of the petitioner has filed the case to put pressure. On consideration of the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, prayer of the petitioner for grant of anticipatory is rejected. Md.S. (Shyam Kishore Sharma,J.) - 2 -
