( 2025:JHHC:11767 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. No. 3043 of 2025 ------ Suresh Yadav @ Suresh, aged about 27 years, son of Babu Lal Gope, resident of Village-Korkota, Yadav Tola, P.O. & P.S.- Hariharpur, Dist.-Dhanbad … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opposite Party ------ CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Sanjay Prasad, Advocate For the State : Mr. Achinto Sen, Addl. P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated- 21.04.2025 Heard the parties. The petitioner has moved this Court for grant of bail in connection with S.T. Case No. 83 of 2025 arising out of Hariharpur P.S. Case No.83 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under sections 80(2)/85/238/3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023 and under Section 3/4 of D.P. Act. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner has committed dowry death of Nilu Kumari and has caused disappearance of the evidence of murder. It is further submitted that the deceased died otherwise than under normal circumstances within seven years of marriage and the petitioner was treating the deceased with cruelty and harassing her in connection with demand of dowry of Rs.5,00,000/- but the allegations against the petitioner are all false. It is then submitted that the petitioner has been in custody since 16.11.2024 as has been mentioned in paragraph no. 11 of the bail application. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be admitted to bail. The learned Addl. P.P. on the other hand vehemently opposes the prayer for bail and submits that in view of overwhelming materials in the record, there is every chance of the petitioner absconding and tampering with evidence, if released on bail. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner ought not be admitted to bail. Considering the serious nature of allegation against the petitioner and the chance of the petitioner absconding and tampering with evidence, if released on bail, this Court is of the considered view that this is not a fit case where the abovenamed petitioner be admitted to bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the abovenamed petitioner is rejected. (Anil Kumar Choudhary, J.) Sonu-Gunjan/
