The alleged offences are under sections 306 and 498A IPC. According to prosecution, petitioner was having illicit relationship with another lady who was residing in the same house and there were frequent quarrels between petitioner and his wife on account of this. Petitioner's wife committed suicide by hanging, due to this harassment as abetted by him. 3. Petitioner was arrested on 18-9-2008. According to learned counsel for the petitioner, petitioner did not allow the deceased to go her house for Onam, since they were residing with petitioner's father's brother and wife who were old and he felt that it may not be proper to leave them alone on Onam day. But, the deceased was offended by this and then she committed the offence. The other allegations are denied. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that investigation is at the initial stage. In the light of the allegations made, it may not be proper to grant bail to petitioner at this stage. 5. On hearing both sides, considering the nature of allegations BA 6003/08 -2- made and the investigation required, I find that it is not fit to grant bail to petitioner at this stage. This petition is dismissed. K.HEMA, JUDGE. mn.
