It is submitted that in several paragraphs of the case diary it has come that the wife of the petitioner died after consuming poison but because of the kind of cruelty which she was facing and further it has come that how her dead body was burnt in the field, the occurrence was not reported to her family members and thereafter the accused persons fled away but one of the co-sharers of the petitioner informed the police about the place where the dead body was burnt and the remains of the dead body were seized from that place. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the seriousness of the allegation and the conduct after death of the victim, this Court is not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. The prayer for regular bail of the petitioner is, thus, refused. Let the trial be expedited.
