Bokaro Case No. 59 of 2021 instituted under Sections 341/323/498A/504/506/363/34 of the Indian Penal Code and under sections 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail.

¶10

It appears that the marriage was solemnized in the year 2017 and the petitioner was residing with his wife peacefully and due to some matrimonial discord of general nature, the informant has lodged twice the case in Delhi against the petitioner, which was settled between the parties. The informant has also withdrawn the meeting of minor daughter with the petitioner. She is also working in a multi-national Company and is of independent nature and is not ready to adjust with the family of the petitioner.

¶11

Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence at all rather he has been falsely implicated in this case. It is further submitted that the petitioner is still ready to keep the informant with him, but she is not co-operating. It is further submitted that petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case and will not indulge in tampering with prosecution evidence and will abide by all terms and conditions imposed by this Court in the matter of granting anticipatory bail. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner may be extended the privilege of anticipatory bail.

¶12

Learned Addl.P.P appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner and submits that the petitioner may not be extended privilege of anticipatory bail.

¶13

Considering the facts and circumstances of this case, the nature of allegation against petitioner coupled with materials available on record, I am inclined to extend privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court within four weeks from today and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will 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 J. M. 1^st Class at Bokaro in connection with B. S. City Mahila P.S. Case Bokaro Case No. 59 of 2021 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
