Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as

learned counsel appearing on behalf of the O.P. No. 2 and the State.

2. The petitioners seeks quashing of the cognizance order

dated 27.05.2013 passed by the learned S.D.J.M., Araria in

connection with Complaint Case No. C-3819 of 2012 where he has

taken cognizance of offence under Section 498A of the Indian Penal

Code.

complainant O.P. No. 2 was married with the petitioner no. 1 in the

year 2001 and complaint was filed in the 2012 only after receiving

2/2

notice in a divorce suit filed by the husband. He further submits that

complainant is still residing in the matrimonial home, she has also

filed a case under the Domestic Violence Act and the present

prosecution case is malicious in nature only with intention to grab the

house of the petitioners situated in Araria Town.

4. Contrary to the submission, learned counsel for the

O.P. No. 2 submits that there is specific allegation of committing

cruelty and harassment against the petitioners in connection with

demand of further dowry and she has filed also a case under the

Domestic Violence Act.

5. Having considered the rival submissions and on

perusal of record, this Court finds no error in the order taking

cognizance by the court below as it is not the case that the allegation

levelled in the complaint does not disclose the offence. So this

application stands dismissed.
