ORAL JUDGMENT
Date: 18-09-2017
This application under Section 482 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure (for short ‘Cr.P.C.’) has been filed by the
petitioner for quashing the order dated 21.11.2016 passed by the
learned Sessions Judge, Kaimur at Bhabua in Cr. Misc. No.17 of
2016 by which in exercise of power conferred under Section 439(2)
of the Cr. P.C., the pre-arrest bail granted to the petitioner in
connection with Complaint Case No.1223 of 2012, has been
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.10178 of 2017 dt.18-09-2017
2
cancelled.
2. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the
petitioner that the court below has erroneously cancelled the
pre-arrest bail granted to the petitioner without appreciating the fact
that he had not violated the undertaking given to the court. He
submitted that the court below failed to appreciate that it was the
opposite party no.2 herself, who was not willing to live with the
petitioner and had voluntarily left her matrimonial house.
3. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and
perused the record.
4. It would be evident from perusal of the impugned
order that the opposite party no.2 had filed complaint petition against
the petitioner under Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code. In the
said case, the petitioner was granted pre-arrest bail vide order dated
26.06.2014 on the undertaking given by him that he would keep his
with dignity and honour. However, the complainant-opposite party
no.2 alleged that immediately after grant of bail, the petitioner again
started subjecting her to cruelty and, lastly, kicked her out from the
matrimonial house.
5. It would further be evident that on perusal of the
show cause filed by the petitioner the learned Sessions Judge come to
a definite conclusion that the allegations made by the complainant
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.10178 of 2017 dt.18-09-2017
3
were correct. Hence, by the impugned order dated 21st November,
2016, the privilege of pre-arrest bail granted to the petitioner was
cancelled and the petitioner was directed to surrender before the
court below and seek regular bail.
6. As the order passed by the learned Session Judge
is reasoned one and the petitioner had obtained the privilege of
pre-arrest bail on false undertaking given to the court, I see no
illegality in order passed by the court below.
7. Accordingly, the application being devoid of any
merit, is dismissed.
