Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.9446 of 2023(3) dt.07-07-2023 2/3 Postmortem.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. He has committed no offence. Petitioner's father died about one year ago, leaving his widow wife and three unmarried daughters behind him, to whom petitioner has to maintain and has to marry the unmarried sisters for which the deceased was not ready and always used to pressurize the petitioner to live with her parents in Chhatishgarh after leaving his old mother and unmarried sisters but the petitioner was not ready for that as a result of which, she committed suicide. There is no any prior complaint regarding assaulting, harassment and torturing to the deceased against the petitioner and others. Marriage was solemnized between the petitioner and the deceased eight years ago and the Postmortem report shows that death is caused by Asphyxia due to hanging. He is languishing in judicial custody since 07.10.2022.

The application for bail is opposed by learned APP for the State.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the facts and circumstances of the case as well as period of custody, this court is inclined to enlarge the petitioner
