Anticipatory bail

Can one of the accused in a 498a FIR obtain anticipatory bail without being physically present in court? and can another accused in same FIR file bail application on her behalf?

Also, how can the complainant oppose such bail application? As i believe the police and the public prosecutor are helping in the same.

It is not obligatory for the accused to remain present in court for the hearing on the anticipatory bail application.

The complainant has a right to be informed by the IO regarding the bail application filed by the accused and thereafter has a right to engage her own lawyer and oppose the bail application.

Are you the complainant? It appears you are so keen on getting them arrested, than seeking remedy for the alleged wrongdoing against you. The posting suggests that  those accused include your in-laws as well. Even otherwise, please note that the Police are under strict instruction not to make any hasty arrest in 498A cases.

498A  is very minor offense and it has lost its teeth due to constant misuse.

 

BAIL IS RIGHT OF ANY ACCUSED AND DENIAL OF BAIL IS EXCEPTION.
