The petitioners being father-in-law and mother-in-law of the informant are inclined to resolve the dispute, if any, between the husband and wife and ensure restoration of normal conjugal and peaceful life at the matrimonial house but the informant is reluctant to resolve the dispute in this regard.

Let the petitioners, above named, in the event of arrest or surrender within a period of one month from the date of communication of the order, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of CJM, Siwan in connection with Goreakothi P.S.
