    The Additional Sessions Judge rejected Santu Kumar's anticipatory bail application in a dowry harassment case filed by his wife Madhu Kumari. The court found the allegations of dowry demand, cruelty, and illegal second marriage (performed in March 2024 without divorce) serious enough to deny bail, despite noting discrepancies in the wife's signature on a settlement document.
