IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.13877 of 2008 ASHOK MISTRY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02/ 30.07.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. This petition has been filed for anticipatory bail to the petitioner in Complaint Case No. 1052 of 2005 for offences punishable under sections 498A, 323 and 494 of the Penal Code. Earlier similar petition was filed by the petitioner bearing Cr. Misc. No. 23464 of 2007, which was dismissed on merit by order dated 03.08.2007. It transpires that although about a year has passed since the said order but since then the petitioner is evading arrest and has now filed the instant petition again for anticipatory bail. From the complaint, it is quite apparent that the petitioner is the husband of the complainant and there is specific allegation against him of torturing and assaulting the complainant and marrying another lady. In the said circumstances, there is no merit in this petition, which is, accordingly, dismissed. MPS/ ( S. N. Huassain, J. )
