IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.6130 of 2009 SHANTI DEVI, son of Rajen Sharma, resident of village- Shitalmani, Police Station- Azamnagar, district- Katihar. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 15.5.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. No one appears for the State. The petitioner pays for anticipatory bail in a case under Section 304B/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the deceased girl had committed suicide and the petitioner along with other accused persons have falsely been implicated on mere suspicion. It is further submitted that no specific allegation has been made against the petitioner, who is the mother-in-law. Learned counsel for the petitioner relies upon the deposition of the informant in the Court below in which he has stated that his sister has committed suicide. From a perusal of the impugned order, it appears that as per the post-mortem report the death occurred due to asphyxia as a result of hanging. Reference is also made to the various paragraphs of the statements of the witnesses regarding torture of the deceased for dowry and the charge-sheet has also been submitted against the petitioner and other accused persons under Section 304 of the Indian Penal Code. In the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court does not consider it a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner and her payer for anticipatory bail is, accordingly, rejected.
