IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.46969 of 2007 ARUN KUMAR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4. 06.05.2008 Heard the learned Counsel for the parties. The informant’s younger sister Jitan Kumari married in 2004 with the petitioner and was being subjected to torture in connection with dowry related demands i.e. Rs. 50,000/- and a motorcycle and ultimately she was killed. Submission is that the victim has committed suicide. The petitioner belongs to poor strata of the society therefore, he could not demand such a huge dowry amount. The petitioner himself is a mental person. It was not homicidal death rather it was a suicidal death. Further submission is that the other accused persons have been granted bail. The death is within seven years of marriage and there is allegation that in-laws of the petitioner were subjecting the victim to torture in connection with dowry related demands. The petitioner’s case cannot be equated with others because of his specific relation with the deceased. Considering the facts, I am not inclined to grant the bail. Accordingly the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. kksinha/- (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
