IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.39016 of 2008 RAJESH KUMAR BHAGAT Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 2.12.2008 Heard Mr. Ram Chandra Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Dashrath Mehta, learned A.P.P. The case is under section 304B of the Indian Penal Code and the allegation is that for not getting Rs.80,000/- in cash and a motor-cycle, the lady was ill-treated, tortured and ultimately burnt to death. The informant claims having got the information about his daughter being burnt from one of his relatives Binod Bhandari. The witnesses examined in the case diary were independent persons like Pashupati Thakur and others and they stated that on getting the information they went to the house of the petitioner and found the lady lying on the Varandah and was moaning in pain and there was none of the family present there. Whereafter the villagers took her to the Referal Hospital, Rajpur, and from where she was referred to Sadar Hospital, Samastipur, and she died there. The contention is that the informant filed a petition disowning the allegations and withdrawing the same and on that basis some of the accused persons have got regular bail. A couple of orders have been annexed as Annexures-3 and 4 to the present petition. Considering the material in the case diary, I am not inclined to direct release of the petitioner on bail. The petition is dismissed. sudip ( Dharnidhar Jha,J )
