IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.9721 of 2011 1. UDHAB LAL KARN 2. CHUN CHUN LAL KARN Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 03.05.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the state. Petitioners are father-in-law and elder brother-in- law of the deceased alleged for killing her (deceased) for non-fulfillment of demand of dowry within seven years of the marriage in matrimonial house for which she was tortured soon before the death. Snake biting is the defence, but rejection order of the learned Sessions Judge is clear enough that torture for demand of dowry soon before the death is corroborated by the witnesses. Accordingly, petitioners’ prayer for regular bail stand rejected. Vikash (Mandhata Singh, J.)
