IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.2722 of 2009 RAJEEV KUMAR PANDEY @ RAJU KUMAR PANDEY, son of Sidheshwar Pandey @ Bishesar Pandey, resident of village-Mahabir Asthan, Sasaram, P.S.-Sasaram, District-Rohtas at Sasaram ------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------Petitioner. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 18.3.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that death was accidental one. Fire caught deceased’s cloth while she was cooking and on the basis of which the deceased’s father-in-law has been allowed bail vide Cr. Misc. no.43758 of 2008. But the concerned order does not corroborate petitioner’s version though that has been taken as one of the submissions. Petitioner’s remaining in custody has also been considered by the Bench. Otherwise also he is the husband and allegation of demand and torture are there. Death occurred within seven years in the matrimonial house and unnatural also. Thus, I find it not a fit case for bail. Prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. However, the trial court is directed to expedite the trial. Sudip ( Mandhata Singh, J )
