The basic accusation is torture for nonfulfilment of dowry demand and performing second marriage. In pursuance to the order dated 03.03.2015 both the petitioner and the complainant are present. The marriage between the petitioner and complainant and birth of a female child are admitted facts. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner has performed second marriage when

In the alternative, the petitioner is ready to make payment of Rs. 1500/- to the complainant from June, 2015, by depositing the same in the bank account of the complainant by second week of every month. The aforesaid offer is acceptable to the complainant who undertakes to supply her bank account number within a period of three weeks by filing the same on affidavit before learned Court below.
Considering the present stand of the parties, let the petitioner, above named, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the Court below within a period of 12 weeks from today, be released on anticipatory bail, on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Daudnagar, Aurangabad in connection with Complaint Case No. 152 of 2014.
The aforesaid payments will be subject to any order being passed in matrimonial or maintenance, or related proceeding.
Three consecutive defaults in making payment will give liberty to the complainant to file appropriate
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.7212 of 2015 (3) dt.11-05-2015 3/3 application for cancellation of bail of the petitioner. The present order, in no way will preclude the parties to resolve the issue otherwise.
