Mr. Joy,
As per the recent citations of the Hon'ble Supreme Court it is mandatory in cases u/s 498-A of the Indian penal Code that after the recipet of the complaint by policer under the above mentioned provisions the police has to call the husband and In-laws of the defacto-complainant before registering of the Crime / FIR and the police should counsel them and send them back.
despite the counsellig if the harassment u/s 498-A still is meted out to her she can always come back and ask the police to register a case , based on her version if prima facie is found the police will register a crime / FIR , that is only when one should go on to0 movea bail application.
Now in your case it is not clarified as to FIR was registered or not. In case if the FIr has been registered your lawyer can always find it out from the court and if the case is filed the best advice i would give you is to ask your lawyer to move AN ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION where in you have a privilage of not being arrested and not being sent to the judicial custody , if you seek for a regular bail there is every possibility that the Hon'ble Courts may send you to judicial remand for three or four days incuding your parents. Inorder to avoid from going to the jail you need to move anticipatory bail .
In response to your last query , you cannot obtain a regular bail from thyew Hig Court though it is situated i your city. regular bails are always moved before the concerned magisterial Courts , High Courts will only grant you anticipatory bails in your present matter.
