2. The petitioner has preferred this application for grant of regular bail in connection with Sathi P.S. Case No. 282 of 2023 dated 06.12.2023 registered for the offence/s punishable u/ss 304B and 120B read with section 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.53627 of 2024(2) dt.01-08-2024 2/2 petitioner is the husband of the deceased. The petitioner neither demanded any dowry nor tortured the deceased. There is general and omnibus allegation against the petitioner. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent as stated in para 3 of the bail petition. The petitioner is in custody since 09.01.2024.

5. Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the anticipatory bail petition of the petitioner. It is further submitted that the petitioner is the husband of the deceased and he used to torture the deceased on account of dowry.

6. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case as well as the heinous nature of allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail petition of the petitioner stands rejected.
