ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA

body2004
Judgment Ashutosh Mohunta, J. 1. Mr. Dinarpur, learned counsel for the petitioners, submits that most of the dowry articles including golden ornaments have already been returned to the complainant. He further contends that the petitioners are not alleged to have caused any injury to the complainant and, therefore, the offence under Section 307 IPC is not made out against the petitioners. 2. Mr. B.B. Gupta, learned Additional Advocate General, Haryana, however, submits that the main accused i.e. the husband of the complainant is absconding and, therefore, the petitioners are not entitled to the grant of bail. 3. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the State it is clear that most of the dowry articles have been returned by the petitioners and challan has also been filed. Thus, the petitioners are entitled to be granted the concession of bail. In view of the above, it is ordered that the petitioners be released on bail to the satisfaction of CJM, Kurukshetra. Petition allowed.
