The accusation is of killing and concealment of dead body of daughter of informant by her husband and other in-

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.38424 of 2020(2) dt.09-07-2021 2/2 laws due to non-fulfillment of demand of dowry. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of petitioner submits that it would appear from the F.I.R. that the allegation of demand of dowry is against the father of petitioner. The F.I.R. indicates that the daughter of informant died within one year of her marriage at her matrimonial house and the petitioner is husband of the deceased, daughter of informant.

Having considered the facts and circumstances of the case and the nature of allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant pre-arrest bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail stands rejected.
