IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32385 of 2010 Gagandeo Bhagat @ Jagandeo Bhagat Versus State Of Bihar ----------- 06/ 29.06.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. Allegation is for torture but status of the complainant is denied on the ground that petitioner’s first wife is alive is admitted to complainant’s own brother in cross-examination in Matrimonial Case No. 88M of 2009 who is alive also. In that case, in my view also petitioner can have no status of wife for constituting offence under Section 498A of the I.P.C. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, prayer of the petitioner for bail is allowed. In the event of arrest or surrender within one month from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order in connection with Tr.
