Mr. Ajay Kumar Tiwary For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr. Umanath Mishra ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 22-06-2020 This case has been heard through video-conferencing. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 304 B and 120 B of the Indian Penal Code.

Petitioner along with his family members is said to have set ablaze the daughter of the informant who was three months pregnant.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that no such occurrence as alleged ever took place. He has been falsely implicated in this case due to ulterior motive. The allegation levelled against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. The petitioner neither

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.9673 of 2020(2) dt.22-06-2020 2/2 demanded any dowry nor set her ablaze. There is no eye witness of the occurrence. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

Learned APP for the State vehemently opposing the bail petition submitted that the petitioner has killed the daughter of the informant by setting her ablaze. Hence, he does not deserve bail.

Considering the facts and circumstances of case, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected. However, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned Court below within six weeks from today and seek regular bail and the learned Court below would pass order in accordance with law without being prejudiced by this order.
