IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.8108 of 2009 BODHA RAI @ ASHOK RAI SON OF RAM ISHWAR RAI RESIDENT OF VILLAGE CHAKRASULABAD,P.S.PATEPUR,DISTT.VAISHALI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 24.7.2009 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner seeks bail in Patepur P.S.Case No. 2 of 2008 which has been registered for offence under Section 304(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Informant’s daughter Meera Devi was married with the petitioner about three years prior to the occurrence and after marriage she was being subjected to torture by raising demand of a motorcycle and a golden chain. She was being threatened by her all in- laws to kill her. A panchaiti was organized. Despite that she has been killed by her in-laws. Submission is that the deceased might have committed suicide and there is nothing to say that she was killed by her in-laws. The death is within seven years of marriage and there is allegation of torture in connection with demand of additional dowry articles. The petitioner is the husband of the deceased. Considering all these, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
