Order No.05 Dated- 20-01-2025
Heard the parties.
Apprehending his arrest in connection with C.P. Case No.1218 of 2023
instituted under Sections 498A, 323, 379, 406, 34 of the Indian Penal Code
and Section 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, the petitioner has moved this
Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against
the petitioner is that the petitioner being the husband of the complainant
/opposite party No.2, treated her with cruelty in connection with demand of
dowry. It is submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false
and general and omnibus in nature. It is next submitted that because of
marital discord between the parties, this false case has been foisted against
the petitioner. It is further submitted that the matter has been settled
between the parties before the Mediator appointed by the Jharkhand State
Legal Services Authority. It is lastly submitted that the petitioner undertakes
to co-operate with the trial of the case and to furnish sufficient security
including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given
the privileges of anticipatory bail.
Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State being assisted by the learned
counsel for the opposite party No.2 oppose the prayer for anticipatory bail of
the petitioner.
Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and
circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory
bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in
the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or
surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.25,000/- as cash
security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand)
with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned J.M.-
1st Class, Bermo at Tenughat in connection with C.P. Case No.1218 of 2023
with the condition that he will co-operate with the trial of the case and
further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya
Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
