JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. K.S. Nanda, Advocate For the State : Mr. Suraj Deo Munda, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 24.01.2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending his arrest, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Complaint Case No.904 of 2022 whereby cognizance has been taken under section 498A of the Indian Penal Code. The Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner being the husband of the complainant treated her with cruelty in connection of demand of dowry. It is further submitted that the allegations against the petitioner are all false and for the selfsame occurrence, earlier the complainant lodged Mahila P.S. Case No. 13 of 2021 which is still pending and again for similar allegation, this case has been instituted. It is then submitted that because of marital discord between the petitioner and the informant, this false case has been foisted. It is then submitted that the petitioner undertakes to furnish sufficient security including cash security and also undertakes to cooperate with the trial of the case and further undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the complainant in any manner during the pendency of the case. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl. P.P. opposes the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail. Considering the submissions of the counsels and the fact as discussed above, I am of the opinion that it is a fit case where the abovenamed petitioner be given the privilege of anticipatory bail. Hence, in the event of his arrest or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, he shall be released on bail on depositing cash security of Rs.25,000/- and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chatra, in connection with Complaint Case No.904 of 2022 with the condition that the petitioner will cooperate with the trial of the case with further condition that that he will not annoy or disturb the complainant in any manner during the pendency of the case subject to the conditions laid down under section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
