IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.8492 of 2010 MD. YUSUF son of Md. Rahman Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 28.04.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under section 304-B/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The petitioner is charged for having committed the murder of his wife. Initially, a plea was taken that the deceased had died on account of drowning and thereafter that she died on account of epilepsy. However, the post mortem report reveals that there was blood stains on her fore head and she died on account of asphyxia caused by smothering. In view of such, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial. JA/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
