allegations against the informant.

¶8

Submission is that the petitioner has filed divorce case wherein written statement has also been filed and after filing of divorce case, this case has been filed with wrong allegations and as such the petitioner deserves sympathetic consideration to which the learned APP and learned counsel representing opposite party no. 2 oppose by submitting that the opposite party no. 2 is still ready to live with her husband (petitioner) but the petitioner is not ready for the same and is torturing her physically and mentally both by making false allegation.

¶9

As the petitioner being the husband, due to nonfulfillment of demand of dowry, is torturing and assaulting the informant, and as such, this Court is not persuaded to grant privilege of pre-arrest bail to the petitioner and accordingly, his such prayer is rejected.

¶10

However, in case and if so advised, petitioner surrenders and seeks regular bail before the court below then his prayer shall be considered on its own merit and shall be disposed of on the same day without being prejudiced by the present order.
