Petitioner/s Versus The State Of Bihar & Anr .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== 7 29-11-2011 The petitioner being the husband is apprehending his arrest in Complaint Case No. 732C/2010 in which cognizance has been taken under Section 498A, 323, 504 and 379 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act pending in the court of learned Sub-divisional Judicial Magistrate, Biharsharif (Nalanda). On the offer, on behalf of the petitioner to keep the complainant as wife with full dignity and honour which was accepted by the complainant vide order dated 09.05.2011, the interim order was passed with a direction to both parties to appear on 04.07.2011 when both parties appeared and the petitioner reiterated the undertaking of taking the complainant to his place of job at Chennai but as jointly prayed, the matter was adjourned to 29.08.2011, when the petitioner did not appear leading to adjournment of the matter for 21.09.2011 when the matter could not be listed but when the matter was taken up on 26.09.2011 the petitioner did not appear then as a last opportunity the matter was fixed for 19.10.2011. The petitioner chose not to appear on 19.10.2011 also then the matter was again adjourned to 29.11.2011 as a last indulgence. Today again the petitioner has not appeared, however, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is not ready for reconciliation. The accusation of demand of dowry and torture gets fortified by the conduct of the petitioner which amounts to obtaining the interim order on making false statement before this Court and misusing the privilege of interim protection. Accordingly, the bail application of the petitioner is rejected. Amrendra Kumar/- (Dinesh Kumar Singh, J)
