Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was arrested on 09.01.2009, although the entire allegation against him is absolutely false and frivolous. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that earlier by order dated 18.03.2009, provisional bail was granted to the petitioner as the informant had appeared through her counsel and had insisted that both parties, namely the informant and her husband, namely the petitioner, be heard. Thereafter the case was fixed for both the parties to be present, but since the last two dates, the informant is not appearing, nor she is present in court today. Considering the facts and circumstances of this case, this petition is allowed. Provisional bail granted to the petitioner vide order dated 18.03.2009 is confirmed. Sunil (S. N. Hussain, J.)
