IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.41223 of 2009 1. JAHIRUL @ JEHRUL, SON OF LATE AJIMUDDIN 2. MASOMAT HAJMUN, WIFE OF LATE AJIMUDDIN BOTH ARE RESIDENT OF BAULAN, POLICE STATION-RAUTA IN THE DISTRICT OF PURNEA. …..Petitioners. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR …..Opposite Party. ----------- 03/ 22.01.2010 Heard Mr. Raj Kumar, learned Counsel for the petitioners and learned Counsel for the State. The petitioners are accused of the case which has been registered under Section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The informant’s daughter was married 8-9 years earlier with Md. Jalil, son of Petitioner No. 2 and elder brother of Petitioner No. 1. She was being consistently tortured earlier, she was administered poison and for that she was treated in Kishanganj Lions Club, Hospital. In the meanwhile, the informant’s daughter was killed and her dead body was found in the house of her in-laws. The dead body was bearing mark of strangulation. The informant has alleged that she has been killed by her in-laws. Submission is that the Petitioner No. 1 is younger brother of the husband of the deceased and Petitioner No. 2 is mother-in-law 2 of the deceased. Their complicity has appeared after 2 & ½ months of the occurrence. The daughter of the deceased has stated in her statement that she has told her maternal grand father that her mother has been killed by her in-laws. This belated statement of the victim’s daughter is nothing but has been made at the behest of the police. It was a case of suicide and there was no occasion for the deceased’s daughter for hiding her statement for so long. The marriage was performed 8-9 years earlier. The daughter of the deceased in her statement has stated that she has seen her mother has been killed by her in-laws. Considering this, presently I am not inclined to grant bail to the above named petitioners. Accordingly, their prayer for bail has been rejected. However, they may renew their prayer for bail after examination of the witnesses who has been examined in Paragraph-69 of the case diary. kksinha/ ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
