IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.33390 of 2010 UTTAM KUMAR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 17.09.2010 Petitioner is languishing in jail in a case registered under Sections 498A, 504/34 of the I.P.C. and Section ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act but subsequently Section 302, 201 I.P.C. was added. From the materials on record, it appears that there are three versions of the case. Initially U.D. case No. 5 of 2010 was registered on 16.03.2010 considering the death of the victim in a train accident in which final form was submitted. The impugned order suggests that the witnesses deposed in the U.D. case that the death occurred due to the accident in the train on 16.03.2010 itself. The present case was registered under Sections 498A, 504/34 I.P.C. but subsequently Section 302, 201 was also added. Learned counsel for the informant submits that the postmortem report and the inquest report suggest that the victim was done to death by strangulation. The impugned order further suggests that there are three postmortem reports of the victim and the third postmortem report suggests causing of death due to asphyxia due to the pressure on the 2 mouth. The impugned order further suggests that the witnesses have not alleged with regard to the demand of dowry. Considering the three versions of the case and the fact that in the third postmortem report the cause of death has been suggested as asphyxia, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and considering the period under custody, let the petitioner namely Uttam Kumar, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nawadah in connection with Muffasil P.S. Case No. 27 of 2010. Learned Court below will be at liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner, if the petitioner fails to appear on three consecutive dates. Shageer ( Dinesh Kumar Singh, J.)
