IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.17656 of 2008 UDAY KUMAR RAM Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 12.5.08. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and also A.P.P. for the State. The petitioner who is named in the F.I.R. of Amnour P.S.Case No. 2 of 2008, registered under Sections 363, 366A, 341, 323, 379/34 I.P.C. apprehending his arrest in connection therewith has prayed for anticipatory bail. The allegation against the petitioner is that he in association with other F.I.R. named accused kidnapped Prabhawati Kumari the daughter of the informant, with ulterior motive. It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he and Prabhawati Kumari have already entered into wedlock and Prabhawati Kumari is in advanced family way. It has also been submitted that Prabhawati Kumari had written to the court as also filed an affidavit stating that she left the paternal home of her own accord and had married the petitioner Uday Kumar who belongs to the same caste. She has also stated that she has willingly compromised the case. Unfortunately, statement of the victim under Section 164 Cr.P.C. has not been recorded nor she has presented herself before the court to be medically examined by the Doctor. That apart her petition filed before the court does not carry any value inasmuch as she is not ready to appear before the court where the case is pending nor she is the informant. Even otherwise the offences are not compoundable - 2 - under Section 320 Cr.P.C. In that view of the matter I found that no merit of the case, hence this application stands accordingly rejected. M.
