IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32554 of 2010 HARDEO THAKUR & ORS Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 02.11.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the state. Petitioners, namely, Hardeo Thakur, Manju Rani, Rabi Kumar @ Nikku Kumar, Roshan Thakur @ Roshan Kumar and Pratima Devi @ Pratima Kumari apprehend their arrest in connection with Complaint Case No. 944 C of 2009 for the offences punishable u/Ss 323 & 498A of the IPC. Admittedly, petitioners are in-laws of the complainant and no specific overt act has been attributed against these petitioners. It appears that earlier the complainant had filed Complaint Case No. 607 of 2005 for the offence u/S 498A of the IPC but the aforesaid Complaint Case was ended in compromise and complainant went to her in-laws’ house but she was again subjected to cruelties for illegal demand. It further appears from the record that the husband of the complainant has already filed a case for divorce against the complainant. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, this anticipatory bail petition is allowed. In the event of arrest/surrender within 30 days from receipt of the order, the petitioners, named above shall be released on 2 bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each in connection with Complaiant Case No. 944 C of 2009 to the satisfaction of Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Khagaria subject to condition as laid down u/S 438(2) of the Cr.P.C, AKV/- ( Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J.)
