Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.
It is alleged that complainants daughter Smt. Rekha was being harassed and teased on account of demand of dowry as a result of which she administered some poison to her child aged about 2 1/2 years and also consumed the same and thus committing suicide.
The learned A.G.A. argued that the husband was having illicit relation with his sister in law and was also demanding dowry and as a result of this harassment Smt. Rekha committed suicide.
The learned counsel for the applicant on the other hand argued that the applicant is the elder brother of the husband and is not having any connection with any demand of dowry. He is having his separate living. Moreover, it has not been explained in the F.I.R. or in the statement under section 161 Cr.P.C. as to what being demanded in the dowry. It was also argued that it appears to be a case of some marital discord between the husband and wife and the applicant has been implicated falsely in the case.
I considered over the matter. The applicant is the elder brother of the husband and is not the beneficiary of any demand of dowry, I feel that a case for bail is made out.
Let the accused-applicant Mahendra Verma involved in Case Crime No. 713 of 2010 under section 498-A, 306 I.P.C., Police Station Jalalpur, District Ambedkar Nagar be released on bail on his executing a personal bond and furnishing two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Court concerned on following conditions that:
