The petitioners apprehend their arrest in Barbigha P.S. Case No. 208 of 2019, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 498(A), 304(B) and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Petitioner no. 1 is mother-in-law and petitioner no. 2 is father-in-law.

It is alleged that marriage of the daughter of informant was solemnized with the son of petitioners in the year 2019.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.15910 of 2020(2) dt.14-07-2020 2/2 After marriage all the accused persons including these petitioners started demanding dowry and subjected the daughter of informant to mental and physical torture. It is further alleged that on 12.09.2019, the informant got information that the accused persons killed his daughter by pressing her neck. The dead-body of his daughter was recovered from maize field. It is submitted that petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. There is general and omnibus allegation. The deceased committed suicide. Petitioners have got clean antecedent.

Learned APP vehemently opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that there is specific allegation of demand of dowry and dead-body was recovered from maize field. The death has occurred within six months of her marriage. Considering the facts aforesaid and the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioners abovenamed on bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected. (Prabhat Kumar Singh, J) vinita/- U T
