Allegation against the petitioner, who happens to be husband of the deceased, is that he killed his wife by burning her. Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that as a matter of fact the case does not come under the purview of Section 304B IPC as she was having son of eight years and she was taken to hospital and she died during course of treatment and thereafter her dead body was cremated.

Heard learned APP also, who has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail on the ground that witnesses in the case diary

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.16454 of 2018 (6) dt.20-06-2018 2/2 have stated that she was burnt and no information was given to the informant.

Having heard both sides and in the facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Petitioner to surrender and make prayer for regular bail, which shall be considered on its own merit, without being prejudiced by this order.

With the above observation, this application is dismissed. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) spal/- U
