CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the petitioner(s) : Mr. Navneet Kumar, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Sanat Kumar Jha, APP ----- 06/30.04.2025: This is an application filed by the petitioner praying for grant of anticipatory bail in terms of sections 482 and 484 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, as the petitioner has been allegedly implicated in connection with Complaint Case No. 6015 of 2019 for the offences punishable under section 498A of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act, pending in the court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Ranchi. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel appearing on behalf of OP No.2 and the learned counsel for the State who have vehemently opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. 3. Admitted fact is that the case arises out of a complaint. In a complaint case, there is no question of custodial interrogation. The only fact which the court has to be assured of is whether the accused will face the trial or not or whether there is any chance of tampering with the evidence. 4. The impugned order does not suggest any of the aforesaid situations. Since there is no necessity of custodial interrogation, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned court below and upon his surrender the learned court below will consider his case as per law. 5. This application is thus disposed of. (ANANDA SEN, J. ) Rashmi/
