They have opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail and submitted that the earlier also after compromise the petitioner had taken the complainant with himself but he against tortured her and ousted her from the house.

Having heard both sides, considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the conduct of the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner rather petitioner has to surrender before the court below and make prayer for regular bail and if any such application is filed, the court below will dispose of the same on the merit of the case, without being prejudiced by this order. This application is, accordingly, dismissed.

Provisional bail granted to the petitioner vide order dated 03.09.2019 stands withdrawn.
