IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.39060 of 2010 MADAN MUKHIYA Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 28.3.2011 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Petitioner is husband. Specific allegation against him is about demand and torture for its non-fulfilment. Submission is about division of witnesses on the point of homicidal death or suicidal death, differs no way comes in fixing of liability against this petitioner as death was not natural. Once it establishes that death is unnatural within seven years of marriage in matrimonial house followed by torture for demand of dowry soon before the death as in this case presumption of killing or abetment to suicide comes in picture, prayer for bail on behalf of petitioner is rejected.
