02/18.06.2026 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State.
2. The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Barhait P. S. Case No.115 of 2025, registered for the offence under Sections 126 (2), 115 (2), 85, 82 (1), 352, 3(5) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (corresponding Sections 341, 323, 498A, 504 and 34 IPC) and the case is pending in the court of learned SDJM, Sahibganj.
3.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that there is matrimonial dispute between the parties. Petitioner is the husband and there is general and omnibus allegation of assault.
4. She next submits that the alleged occurrence is said to be of dated 23.07.2025, but the FIR has been lodged on 02.08.2025 (i.e. after 9 days of the alleged occurrence).
5. She also submits that the learned Sessions Judge has been pleased to refer the dispute before the Mediation Centre. However, the same has failed as the informant is not ready to reside along with the petitioner, but the petitioner is ready and willing to keep her with all dignity.
6. In course of argument, it has been pointed out that petitioner (husband) is still ready and willing to keep his wife with all dignity.
7.
Learned counsel appearing for the State has opposed the prayer and submits that allegations are there and that petitioner is the husband, as such, he may not be enlarged on anticipatory bail.
8. Considering the fact that petitioner is the husband and it has been pointed out that petitioner is ready to keep his wife with all

dignity but the informant (wife) is not ready to reside along with the petitioner, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail.
9. Accordingly, the above-named petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned Court within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and in the event of his arrest or surrender, he shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned SDJM, Sahibganj, in connection with Barhait P. S. Case No.115 of 2025, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
