IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.6977 of 2009 BINOD RAM @ BINOD KUMAR RAM S/O-Late Parani Ram, R/O-Vill-Amauna, P.S.-Karakat, Distt.-Rohtas. ………………………………………Petitioner. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR …………………………………………..Opposite Party. ----------- 3/ 06.07.2009 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned APP appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case which has been registered for the offence under Sections 304B/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Allegation is that the informant’s daughter namely Kusum Devi was married with the petitioner and was done away within seven years of her marriage on account of her inability to procure the desired dowry. Submission is that the marriage was beyond seven years so Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code is not made out. The petitioner is husband of the deceased and his role cannot be equated with others. Considering this, presently I am not 2 inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. However, he may renew his pray for bail after examination of the informant. kksinha/ (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
