Anticipatory Bail- 498A and DV

Dear Members,

My 3 year old marriage has been a sad tale of extreme violence and contant mental agony owing to the mental condition of my wife and negative attitude of my in-laws.

Finally, I left home around 6 months back after my wife and in-laws threatened me with 498A and DV.

After numerous attempts at finding my whereabouts and emotionally blackmailing me to bring her back home, they have now approached the local PS in Thane, Mumbai to file a complaint against me. I am afraid that they will be filing a complaint under 498A and DV and try to get myself and my family arrested.

Hence, apprehending arrest, I need to immediately apply for Anticipatory Bail before they lodge a false case against me and my family.

Request learned and experienced members in this forum to please provide me with contact details of such lawyers who may help me in procuring an anticipatory bail. A quick response will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Friend, Do not go in for anticipatory Bail if you are not at fault. It will be "A Bail Mujhe mar". If you happen to stay in central suburbs you may contact Mr. Shashank Despande at Kalyan Court. he is present during the court hours Mon to Friday or his email address: shashankdeshpande63@gmail.com. He is specialised in 498 A, DV as well as Criminal cases and practice in Kalyan, Thane courts.

An Anticipatory Bail Application would be handy. and you make out a good case for that. But before the court pragmatism tells me that its a little difficult to convince court that your apprehension is reasonable. Try recoridng calls if somebody from PS calls or anything that would substantiate your apprehension. for record - it is settled law that FIR isw not a condition precedent ...rest cannot comment much without the detailed facts of the case.
