He has neither made any dowry demand nor tormented her over the demand of dowry nor drove her out of her matrimonial home.

5. In that view of the matter, let the above named petitioner, be released on bail, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a period of six weeks from today, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Court below where the case is pending/successor Court in connection with Complaint Case No. 1013 of 2022, subject to the condition as laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Cr.P.C.
