Case brief
What is this about?
Patna High Court; CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS No.16090 of 2025; decided 21-11-2025 by Rajiv Roy, J; arising out of Mahila P.S. Case No. 106 of 2023, District Patna; petitioner Ravikant Kumar @ Guddu; opposite parties State of Bihar and Renuka Sinha (wife/informant); anticipatory bail REJECTED for offences under IPC Sections 341, 342, 323, 504, 506, 379, 34, 509, 498(A); grounds: dowry torture, assault, ornaments taken away, vulgar WhatsApp messages, defied undertakings given before Sessions Court and High Court; direction to surrender within four weeks and seek regular bail else arrest in accordance with law.
What did the court decide?
Given the nature of the allegations against the petitioner, including the assault theory, coupled with the vulgar messages he sent to the lady (brought on record by counter affidavit), which in short are not allowing her to live in peace, it would be appropriate that he seek bail.
