The defacto complainant is the another son of the deceased. Due to money dispute between the deceased and the petitioner the petitioner conspired together and committed the murder of the deceased and on 07.03.2023 while the deceased was travelling in the two wheeler the accused persons hit the vehicle with a car and caused death to the deceased. Hence the case. 3.Heard both sides and perused the materials available on record including the First Information Report. 4.It is seen that there are totally two accused in this case and the petitioner herein is arrayed as A1. It is very unfortunate 1/3
to state that the petitioner is none other than the son of the deceased, who drove his car in a high speed to do away the life of his mother, who was going along with his another son in a two wheeler. He hit the two wheeler, therefore his brother sustained injuries and his mother died. Due to property dispute and also the dispute in the claim made, this murder had taken place. 5.It is also seen that the third accused in this case is still absconding and therefore, investigation is pending. However, the petitioner is in custody from 21.03.2023.
6.Taking into consideration of the above facts and circumstances and also the period of incarceration, this court is inclined to grant bail to the petitioner subject to the following conditions:
