IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16334 of 2010 1. SHANKAR JHA son of Shri Digambar Jha 2. Buchain Devi wife of Shri Digambar Jha----------Petitioners. Versus STATE OF BIHAR . ----------- 5. 13.9.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. Deceased died in the house of petitioners by strangulation. Thereafter, an attempt was made to set her on fire to save themselves from the liability of strangulation. Divorce is there but presence of the deceased and petitioners is also apparent even in statement of father-in-law of the deceased. Divorce could be taken for strained relation. A motive for killing though F.I.R. is clear enough that the deceased herself disclosed before her death about killing by these petitioners if not accepted then also strained relation and presence of both are there. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected. However, petitioner no.2 no doubt is a lady and if she is found old enough on her appearance before the court below then her case can be considered for bail on regular side.
