IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.4944 of 2011 1. Smt. Meena Devi, W/o-Sri Deolal Mahto. 2. Smt. Sobha Devi, W/o-Sri Shreechand Prasad. Both residents of Vill.-Musaila, P.S.-Mohanpur, District-Gaya. –Petitioners. VERSUS The State of Bihar -Opposite Party. ----------- 02 11.03.2011 The petitioners are the wife and the mother-in-law of the deceased and are in custody in relation to Barachatty (Mohanpur) P.S. Case No.205 of 2009 instituted under Section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The informant is the father of the deceased. He alleges that soon after marriage of his son his son’s wife, who is petitioner no.2, and the in-laws manipulated his son in such a manner that immediately the son sought partition and sold away all his properties. He kept the money in his Sasural with which he got upon being manipulated land in the name of his wife and mother-in-law (not in his name). When he asked for balance money to complete the new house he has been killed by his wife and his in-laws with whom he had been staying all along. In course of investigation the dead body of the son of the informant was found from a well in his Sasural. In view of the facts stated above and the fact that the property was purchased in the name of wife and mother-in-law to the exclusion of the deceased is also not in dispute, I am not inclined to interfere in this matter at this stage. However, once the charges are framed, the petitioners would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail before the trial Court, which would be considered on its own merits.
