====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 06-01-2021 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Naugachia P.S. Case No. 215 of 2019 (G.R. No. 849 of 2019) for the offence registered under Sections 304(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The allegation is regarding the petitioner, who happens to be the husband of the victim lady, having killed his wife in connivance with other co-accused persons on account of non-fulfillment of the demand for dowry.

The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent, has been falsely implicated in the present case and he is having a clean antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner is languishing in custody since

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.30314 of 2020(3) dt.06-01-2021 2/2 21.08.2019.

Per contra, the learned counsel for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and taking into account the fact that the petitioner is the husband of the deceased victim lady and is alleged to have killed his wife on account of non-fulfillment of the demand for dowry, I do not find any merit in the present petition. Accordingly, the present petition stands dismissed. (Mohit Kumar Shah, J) S.Sb/- U T
