The petitioner is the husband. Father of the deceased alleged that within six months of the marriage his daughter was killed.

Shri Krishna Pd. Singh, learned Senior counsel for the petitioner submits that the father alleged that the victim was strangulated to death, but no injury was found in the post-mortem report. Viscera report is also available on record and it shows the presence of Endosulfa a chloro-organic pesticide. The victim committed suicide.

Considering the facts aforesaid, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner above named on bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected.

The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same within nine months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order as the petitioner has already remained in jail for about a year.
