3. The present case relates to matrimonial dispute between the petitioner and the opposite party no.2, who are husband and wife. The allegation against the petitioner is of assaulting the opposite party no.2 for non-fulfillment of demand of dowry.
4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the parties submitted that the dispute between the parties could not be resolved through the process of mediation and a report dated 02.04.2024 to that effect has been submitted by the learned Mediator, which has been kept at Flag "B".
5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail.
6. Considering the fact that the parties have already availed remedy before the learned Mediator and the mediation has failed, I don't find any reason to keep pending the present bail application and as such, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on pre-arrest bail, so that the petitioner and O.P. No.2 can resolve their dispute amicably, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the Court below within a period of four weeks from today, on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned A.C.J.M., 12th,
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.10487 of 2024(9) dt.20-11-2024 3/3 Muzaffarpur in connection with Complaint Case No. 3391 / 2019, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C.
