Versus

1. The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Ashok Kumar Jha, Advocate For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Shyam Kumar Singh, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIRENDRA KUMAR ORAL ORDER 10-05-2017 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

The Petitioner is apprehending his arrest in Sheohar P.S. Case No. 222 of 2016, registered for the offence punishable under Section 304B/34 of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Sheohar.

Wife of the petitioner died within few months of marriage in her matrimonial house in unnatural circumstances. Allegation is of demand of dowry and torture for the same. Heard the parties and perused the case-diary. In my view, this is not a fit case for anticipatory bail. Hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is refused.
