Sessions Court by order dated 18th April, 2017.

3. Applicant was granted interim protection vide order dated

30th June, 2017. He was directed to attend the police station.

Learned APP submitted that applicant had not attended the police

station. However, learned counsel for the applicant submitted that

there was a communication gap between the lawyer which was

representing the applicant previously and the application was

initially dismissed for want of prosecution and therefore, the

applicant had not attended the police. Learned counsel for the

applicant submitted that applicant has attended the police station

in the month of December, 2018. Learned counsel for the

applicant tendered the acknowledgment with regards to the

attendance of the applicant to the Police Station. He also pointed

out the complaint forwarded by the society mentioning that the

applicant was assaulted by complainant and her sister.

applicant has made false statement. The complainant had

initiated the proceedings under the Domestic Violence Act before

complainant. Learned counsel for the applicant on instructions

from the applicant who is present in the Court submits that

applicant would deposit an amount of Rs.1,00,000/- towards the

arrears of maintenance within four weeks before the Family Court,

without prejudice to his right. In the event of default of payment

of arrears of maintenance, the complainant will be at liberty to

initiate appropriate proceedings.

5. Learned APP submitted that the ornaments which were the

subject matter of the First Information Report are not yet

recovered. It is the contention of the applicant that the ornaments

were taken away by the complainant. It is noted that the marriage

was solemnized in the year 2008 and the First Information Report

was lodged in 2017. The dispute arises out of the matrimonial

discord. Co-accused are granted anticipatory bail by the Sessions

Court. In the circumstances, interim protection granted to the

applicant deserves to be confirmed.
