As per allegations in the FIR, petitioner along with his co- accused used to harass Mamta-daughter of the complainant on the pretext of demand of dowry thereby causing her death. Learned counsel submits that the allegations regarding demand of dowry are totally false and that the petitioner had himself got deceased Mamta admitted in Shri Ram College of Education, Mohindergarh, where she was pursuing her J.B.T Course. It is contended that the petitioner has been falsely roped in as said Mamta-deceased had died because of having committed suicide. Petitioner is stated to be in custody since 2.6.2010. Learned state counsel, on instructions from ASI Uma Shankar, Crl.M.No.25884-M of 2010 #2# states that the investigation in the case are over and the challan has been presented. Without expressing any opinion on the merit of the case and in view of the custody period and that the trial is not likely to conclude in near future, I find that no useful purpose would be served to keep the petitioner in custody any longer. Accordingly, petition is allowed and the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail to the satisfaction of the ld. Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhiwani. October 05, 2010 ( JASWANT SINGH ) manoj JUDGE
