No.103 of 2011 as common questions of law and facts are involved in these cases. For the sake of convenience, facts are being taken from CRM No.M-37820 of 2010. This petition has been filed for anticipatory bail in case CRM No.M-37820 of 2010 -2- F.I.R. No.41 dated 22.11.2010 registered under Sections 328, 342, 420, 497, 506 IPC, P.S. City, Banga. The allegations in the F.I.R. are two fold. First that the petitioner has kept the wife of the complainant in illegal custody and secondly, that the complainant was taken to the house of the petitioner and administered some drugs. Today the wife of the complainant is present in the Court. She states that she is not staying against her wishes anywhere and she has also moved out of her matrimonial home only on account of the dispute with her husband. In the circumstances, it would be in the interest of justice if the petitioner is granted concession of anticipatory bail subject to the conditions envisaged under Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. Ordered accordingly. In view of the statement made by Ms. Amanpreet Kaur, wife of the complainant, the petition for habeas corpus is being rendered infructuous. The girl has however agreed that she does not face any threat from her father and husband. With these observations, both the petitions stand disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) January 28, 2011 JUDGE ashish
