1.

This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual /Physical Mode).

2.

Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and the learned Additional Standing Counsel. Perused the records. 3.

This is an application under Section 438 Cr.P.C. filed by the Petitioner for anticipatory bail.

4.

It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioner that the wife of the Petitioner has foisted the present case against the Petitioner. The allegations against the Petitioner are omnibus in nature. The Petitioner has no criminal antecedents. There is no material to make out a prima facie case against the Petitioner. 5.

Considering the nature of allegations made, gravity of the offence and the fact of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the Petitioner. However, it is directed that in the

// 2 // event the Petitioner surrenders before the learned J.M.F.C.(Rural), Cuttack in G.R.Case No.1915 of 2022 arising out of Bentkar (42 Mouza) P.S.Case No.142 of 2022 within a period of three weeks from today and moves for bail, he shall be released on bail on such terms and conditions as would be deemed just and proper by the learned Magistrate with further condition that the Petitioner while on bail shall not threaten, influence, terrorise or harass the informant and her family members in any manner whatsoever. Violation of condition shall entail cancellation of bail. It is also directed that the Petitioner shall also look after the well being of the informant and shall provide maintenance to the informant so long as the matrimonial dispute subsists.

Accordingly, the ABLAPL is disposed of.
