Home Deptt. U.P. Lko. Counsel for Applicant :- Pawan Kumar Sharma Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A.,Manoj Kumar Singh Hon'ble Karunesh Singh Pawar,J. Rejoinder affidavit filed today is taken on record. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State, learned counsel for the complainant and perused the record. In the prosecution case, it is alleged that the complainant married his daughter with the applicant on 26.4.2024. It is alleged that the named accused persons used to commit cruelty upon her in relation to demand of dowry of Rs. 3 lakhs. Due to not paying the said amount, they have killed her on 20.9.2024. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that general allegation has been levelled in the prosecution case. There is no material to show that the deceased was subjected to cruelty soon before her death relating to demand of dowry. As per post- mortem report, cause of death is asphyxia as a result of ante- mortem hanging. Except ligature mark, there is no other ante- mortem injury. It is submitted that the PW-1 in his chief examination has reiterated the version of the FIR. However, during the cross-examination, he has stated that the deceased never told him about demand of dowry and she had committed suicide according to her own will. The accused is not responsible. Further, PW-2, mother of the deceased has been declared hostile. It is further submitted that the applicant has no criminal history and he is languishing in jail since 11.10.2024. There is no possibility of the applicant of fleeing away after being released from jail or tampering with the witnesses. In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Learned A.G.A. as well as learned counsel for the complainant have opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant. On due consideration to the submissions advanced, perusal of the record, the statement of PW-1 and PW-2, general nature of allegations levelled in the prosecution case so also the fact that there is no material so show that the deceased was subjected to cruelty relating to demand of dowry; the applicant has no criminal history; he is languishing in jail since 11.10.2024 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Let the applicant- Sajan @ Ram Sanehi involved in Case Crime No. 476 of 2024, under Sections 80(2), 85 of B.N.S. & Section 3/4 of D.P.
