For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Rashid Izhar For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Khurshid Anwar, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 11-05-2015 Heard both sides.

The petitioner seeks bail in Dumariya P.S.Case No.42 of 2014 registered under sections 304B and 34 of the IPC. The brother of the victim made allegation that the petitioner and other accused persons killed his sister for demand of dowry.

It is submitted that during the course of investigation, the witnesses have stated that the husband had some verbal altercation with his wife on the question of bringing a glass of water and on account of which, the wife committed suicide. It is also submitted that the victim has got six years son. The informant made specific allegation that the petitioner, being the husband, and mother-in-law killed his sister within three years of her marriage with the petitioner. There was mark of pressing on the neck.

Considering the fact that the petitioner is the husband and there is specific allegation against him, I am not inclined to enlarge him on bail and accordingly, the same is rejected.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.4975 of 2015 (5) dt.11-05-2015 2/2 The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same within a period of nine months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
