REKHA KUMARI, DAUGHTER OF SHRI HIRDAYA NARAYAN SINGH, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE CHICHODA, POLICE STATION BIKRAM, DISTRICT PATNA …………………………………………………………………….OPPOSITE PARTIES ********** 2 09/03/2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the A.P.P. appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner is apprehending arrest in a case under Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. It would appear from the order of the Court below that all steps have been taken to reconcile the differences between the parties in the Court below itself. It appears that the parties could not reconcile their differences. The allegation against the petitioner is that he demanded Rs. One lac and one motorcycle by way of dowry and on non-fulfilment of the demand, has ill-treated his wife and has thrown away wife out of her matrimonial home. Considering this aspect, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the above named petitioner. This application is accordingly dismissed. Anand ( Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
