Mr.Manoj Kumar Singh For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Surendra Prasad Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 04-03-2020 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned APP for the State.

This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail in connection with Muffasil (Lakho O.P.) P.S. Case No. 719 of 2018, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 304(B) and 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The case of the prosecution according to the fardbeyan of the informant, namely, Lila Devi is that the marriage of her daughter was solemnized in the year 2012 with the petitioner and thereafter, demands for dowry used to be made and on 13.11.2018, the petitioner had come to the house of the informant and demanded a motorcycle, however, the same was denied by the informant. Subsequently, the accused persons

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.8924 of 2020(2) dt.04-03-2020 2/2 including the petitioner herein, who is the husband of the deceased victim lady, has been alleged to have killed the daughter of the informant on account of non-fulfillment of the demand for dowry.

The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case as also he is having a clean antecedent. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and considered the materials on record and I find that the petitioner is the husband of the deceased victim lady and he has been alleged to have killed the deceased victim lady along with other accused persons by burning her, hence, considering the gravity of the offences and the seriousness of the charges levelled against the petitioner herein, I do not find the present case to be a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, the present petition stands dismissed. (Mohit Kumar Shah, J) Ajay/- U T
