The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Hilsa (Chiksaura) P.S. Case No. 496 of 2014, in which, cognizance has been taken for the offence punishable under Sections-341, 323, 498A/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act. The contention on behalf of the petitioner is that the petitioner is ready to keep the complainant with full honour and dignity.

In view of the aforesaid submissions, without entering into merit of the case, this petition stands disposed off

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.4973 of 2015 (2) dt.05-02-2015 2/3 with direction to the petitioner to surrender before the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate /concerned court, Hilsa, Nalanda and seek regular bail within four weeks from the date of receipt/production of copy of this order and if, the petitioner does so, the petitioner shall be enlarged on provisional bail on the date of surrender itself, for a period of four months on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/-(ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate /concerned court, Hilsa, Nalanda in connection with Hilsa (Chiksaura) P.S. Case No. 496 of 2014.

It is further made clear after being released on provisional bail, the concerned court shall issue notice to the petitioner as well as the complainant, fixing a date for reconciliation and shall take all efforts to patch up the dispute of the parties within four months from the date of surrender of the petitioner.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.4973 of 2015 (2) dt.05-02-2015 3/3 regular bail petition, the order shall be passed on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order.

It goes without saying that if, the reconciliation proceeding fails due to rigid and non-cooperative approach of the complainant, the provisional bail granted to the petitioner shall be confirmed by the concerned court itself.
