Mr. Imran Ali, Advocate

.. for the State

The petitioners seek anticipatory bail in connection with Tehatta

Police Station Case No.596 of 2017 dated 27.11.2017 for alleged

offence punishable under Sections 498A/307/34 of the Indian Penal

Code.

This is the second petition by some of the petitioners, but the

circumstances appear to have changed.

The victim has returned to her matrimonial home and is living,

apparently in peace with the husband. The petitioners are the

relatives of the husband.

In view of such changed circumstances, the petitioners are

granted anticipatory bail. However, any further complaint of the

kind previously lodged by the victim may result in the present

petitioners’ liberty being affected.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest the petitioners will be granted

bail upon furnishing security of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand

only) each, with two sureties of Rs.5,000/- (Rupees five thousand

only) each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the

Arresting Officer, subject to the conditions as laid down in Section

438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.

In addition, the petitioners will also report to the Investigating

Officer at such time and place as may be specified by the concerned

police officer.

The petition for anticipatory bail is allowed subject to the

conditions as indicated above.

A certified copy of this order be immediately made available to

the petitioners subject to compliance with all requisite formalities.
