Learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 submits
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.2908 of 2017 (8) dt.21-07-2017 that in compliance of order dated 21.06.2017, opposite party no. 2 was taken by the petitioner from the High Court while she was stayed at her matrimonial house for 21 days but in the meantime, she was brutally mishandled by the petitioner and other-in-laws, on which, she had no option except to leave the matrimonial house. Thereafter, she left the matrimonial house. Having considered the facts and circumstances of the case and the nature of allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for grant of anticipatory bail stands rejected. The petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial court within four weeks and pray for regular bail, which would be considered by the trial court in accordance with law without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
