IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.34202 of 2008 RABINDRA YADAV @ Raben Yadav Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 6.1.2009 Heard. Petitioner is the husband of the deceased Lalita Devi and is alleged to have strangulated her to death by means of a rope. The informant claimed having received information from one Subhash Yadav and on that account, coming to the house of the petitioner along with some others. The motive of the occurrence was alleged illicit relationship which the petitioner was carrying with his bhabhi. There is support of the allegation not only by the informant but by some independent persons also that the petitioner was carrying illicit relationship and the further material indicates that the lady, on account of the above, was residing separate from the present petitioner with her seven years’ old son and was lately making demands for immovable properties also in her share. As regards the medical evidence, the postmortem examination report 2 clinches the issue as it clearly indicates that it could be a case of strangulating the deceased by means of a rope. This inference is deducible from the fact that there was no complete absence of any injury or mark of ligature on the nap of the neck. Petition is dismissed. Anil/ ( Dharnidhar Jha,J )
