It is submitted that son of the petitioners, namely, Sachin was married to complainant-Padmawati on 21.11.2007. Due to temperamental disparity, the complainant wife left her matrimonial home on 14.10.2009. It is further stated that husband-Sachin being disturbed in view of the discord in the family is missing since the intervening night of 5-6.6.2010 and a report has also been filed before the police in that regard. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the present FIR has been lodged by the complainant levelling false allegations and that no demand of dowry was ever made by the petitioners. It is further stated that Crl.M.No.24898-M of 2010 #2# the petitioners along with their son had been harassed at the hands of the complainant and her family members. Learned state counsel, on instructions from ASI Bhim Singh, states that pursuant to the directions issued by this Court on 26.8.2010, petitioners were called to join investigations but they did not appear before the Investigating Officer on the appointed date. Thereafter, they have also refused to accept notices for joining investigation. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and taking into account the facts of the case, I do not find valid reason to extend the concession of anticipator y bail to the petitioners. Dismissed.
