Mr S A Jaiswal, Adv. for applicant Mr. Anup Parihar, APP for Respondent CORAM: A.P. BHANGALE,J. DATED: 10 th August, 2009. Heard counsel for respective parties. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in connection with Crime No. 215/2008 registered at Chikhali Police Station for offence punishable under sections 306,304-B read with section 34 of the Indian Penal Code. It is contended on behalf of the applicant that other co-accused are already released on bail. Charge sheet is also filed. Furthermore, there are no incriminating statements of witnesses of the place where the applicant was hailed. C.A. Report did not reveal internal or external injuries or any observations to substantiate the case of the prosecution that she was pregnant at the time of her suicide. According to learned Advocate for the applicant she was under treatment of Dr. Laddad and sonography test reveals that she was not at all pregnant. These circumstances could not be controverted on behalf of the learned APP, except the fact that there is a presumption against the applicant as the death has occurred within seven years of marriage between the applicant and the deceased and that there were dowry demands according to witnesses. 3. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, at this stage, I am of the prima facie view that the applicant can be granted bail subject to certain conditions. Hence the following order :- The applicant be released on bail in connection with Crime No. 215/2008 reported at Chikhali Police Station for offence punishable under section 306, 304B r/ws. 34 IPC, upon executing a PR bond in the sum of Rs.30,000/- with one or more sureties in the like amount. The applicant shall not attempt to contact the witnesses concerned with the case. He shall not misuse his liberty in any manner and shall inform his fixed address/ change in the address, if any, to the Investigating Office and shall attend the case on each date of hearing. Application stands disposed of. Humdast granted. JUDGE. sahare
