The petitioner, husband of the deceased, has prayed for grant of bail in Barachatti P.S. Case No.559 of 2017 registered for the offence under Sections 304(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the victim virtually had committed suicide.

It has

Be that as it may, considering the fact that the petitioner is husband of the deceased and death of his wife had occurred in his house as well as the fact that it was case of the prosecution that death had occurred due to strangulation, there is no reason to extend the privilege of bail.

The petition stands dismissed.
