Mr. Sri Ataur Rahman ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR JUSTICE MADHURESH PRASAD ORAL ORDER 13-12-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned APP for the State.

Petitioner apprehends arrest in Dehri Rohtas Mahila Police Station Case No 82 of 2017 dated 12.11.2017 registered under Sections 498A, 341, 323, 504/34 of Indian Penal Code and Sections 3⁄4 of Dowry Prohibition Act.

It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that in fact, the informant (wife) does not want to live with the petitioner and, as such, he has falsely been implicated in this case.

On going through the first information report, it is quite apparent that the informant has alleged being subjected to

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.65630 of 2018(2) dt.13-12-2018 2/2 cruelty and in this respect, the informant has also enclosed copies of earlier application.

Considering the nature of allegation and after hearing the parties including learned counsel for the informant, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Prayer is rejected.
