$ he has been falsely implicated in this case. There is delay of more than one month in lodging of the FIR from the date of the incident of self-hanging the victim. On the day,
when the victim had hanged herself, she had left a suicide note wherein, she had not held the petitioner or any other person responsible for her death and had also stated that demand of dowry was not cause of her committing suicide. It is further argued that the family of the petitioner and petitioner himself did their best to save the life of the victim and had spent huge amount of money on her treatment. It is a case of suicidal death. Vague and omnibus allegations with regard to the demand of dowry have been raised against the petitioner and his family members. The rest of family members of the petitioner have even been found innocent and have not been arrested and challaned. The trial is likely to take time. No useful purpose would be served by keeping the petitioner in custody anymore. Therefore, it is argued that petition deserves to be allowed and the petitioner deserves to be given concession of bail.
4.
Status report has been filed by the respondent-State, as per which, thorough investigation was conducted in the matter and it was found that victim had died unnatural death on account of demand of dowry and as a result of harassment meted to her by the present petitioner. It is also submitted that the petitioner had suffered disclosure statement admitting his involvement in the subject crime. The complainant and other material witnesses are yet to be examined, there are chances of petitioner's intimidating them. With these broad submissions, it is argued that petition does not deserve to be allowed.
