IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.85 of 2010 1. SHIV KUMAR SINGH S/O LATE GANPAT SINGH R/O VILL.- MITHOPUR, P.S.- INDRAPURI, DISTT.- ROHTAS. …. Petitioner Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR …. Opp.Party ----------- 6 2.2.2011 This is an application for bail in Dehri (Indrapuri) P.S.Case no. 70 of 2009 registered under Section 304B/34 IPC. The petitioner is the husband. It is submitted that Section 304B IPC would not apply as the marriage had taken place more than ten years back. The couple having children of 10 years, 8 years and 6 years. The cause of death is poisoning, which is confirmed with the viscera report . She allegedly committed suicide in her matrimonial house itself. Learned APP points out that if not under Section 304B IPC, Section 306 IPC would apply. Be that as it may I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner in spite of the fact that he is in jail for more than a year. The prayer for bail is accordingly rejected. However, 3rd Additional Sessions Judge,Rohtas, is directed to take all effective steps to conclude S.Tr. no. 201 of 2009 arising out of Dehri (Indrapuri) P.S.Case no. 70 of 2009 within a period of six months, if petitioner co-operates.
