IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.11668 of 2008 SURAJ KUMAR @ SUGAN YADAV @ SURAJ RAI @ SUGAN RAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 5/ 12.9.2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The informant’s daughter Sanju Kumari who was married with the petitioner about three years ago was being subjected to torture in connection with demand of additional dowry and ultimately she was killed by her in=laws including the petitioner. Submission is that there is no specific allegation against the petitioner and in similar circumstances other co-accused persons have been granted bail. The petitioner is the husband of the deceased and it was his duty to take the care of his wife properly and he cannot be equated with another co- accused. Considering the allegations and facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected.
