S.L. Kochar, J.—This is an application u/s 438, Cr.P.C. in connection with Crime No. 86/2002 for the offence punishable Under Sections 498A, 323, 506, I.P.C.

2.

The applicant No. 1 Babu Ali is the husband and applicant Nos. 2,3,4 are his relations. The applicant No. 1 was married before 10 years with the complainant-wife Najma. She has given birth to 4 children; 3 daughters and one son. Now after 10 years of the marriage a false allegation has been levelled by the complainant against the applicants regarding ill-treatment for demand of dowry. On the other hand the contention of the Panel Lawyer Mr. Palsikar is that the applicant No. 1 has contracted second marriage without giving divorce to his first wife-complainant Najma, In Mohammadan community, the husband can contract a second marriage and for the purpose, he is not required to give divorce to his first wife. It appears that the second marriage of applicant No. 1 is the cause of dispute between the applicant and the complainant-wife Najma. Be as it may, looking to the fact, and circumstances of the case, the application is allowed.
