IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.7725 of 2010 SURENDRA KUMAR SON OF SRI BAUDHU YADAV Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 8.4.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner, the State and the informant. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Sections 304B and 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The informant has alleged that his sister was killed by her in-laws for demands of dowry. However, it appears that the marriage had taken place about five years ago and there are two children out of the wedlock and the submission is that it is not believable that even at this stage any demands of dowry would be made. Moreover the petitioner is a Bank employee posted at Burdwan (West Bengal) and independent witnesses have stated that the petitioner was not seen at the time that the deceased was being removed to the Hospital. There are documents to suggest that in fact the deceased was treated before her death and cremated and even a death certificate was issued in this regard by the authorities. In view of such, let the petitioner above named, who is in custody since 3.2.2010, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.5,000/- (Five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jehanabad in Kako (Bhelawar) P.S.case No.124 of 2009, subject to the conditions (i) That one of the bailors will be a close relative of - 2 - the petitioner who will give an affidavit giving genealogy as to how he is related with the petitioner and (ii) that the petitioner will give an undertaking that he will receive the police papers on the given date and be present on date fixed for charge and if he fails to do so on two given dates and delays the trial in any manner, his bail will be liable to be cancelled for reasons of misuse.
