You can approach sessions or high court with sufficient evidence and reasons for applying Anticipatory Bail. If FIR has already been filed, then it becomes easier to show that as a reason.

I and my wife live in different Cities,Anticipatory Bail taken in one city can be applicable / effective in other city.

No the AB needs to be obtained in the city where the crime is registered,.

Hi Shonee,

it means it has to be obtained from a court which has jurisdiction in the area where your wife is most likely to file the 498a. You can file 2 separate AB pleas in the two cities. Or you can file it at a single city where you spent most of your time together (i.e. area where the crime is suppossed to have happened).
But anticipatory bail if positive serves as a good supporting document irrespective of where the complaint is actually filed because no magistrate goes against judgement of another court. So it becomes easier to get a regular bail.

No.. its better to apply for a AB from ur local session court.. It will work in other cities also or atleast support you in difficult times

Law has changed for dowry FIR... These days police doesn't register FIR state away.. first they will interrogate you and if found guilty then they will lodge FIR..

It all depends which city/ state/ HC the case is in?
Some HC are liberal in granting bail, however some are rigid and it takes alot of effort to secure bail.
