2. 17.03.2011 The petitioner is in custody since 3.01.2011 in relation

to Parsa Bazar P.S.Case No. 135 of 2010 instituted under section

302 for allegedly shooting his minor daughter to his death while

she was sleeping in the house.

The informant is the grand- father of the girl as

alleges that some unknown has shot his daughter while his son

was not in the house. It appears that in course of investigation

one Hari Kishore Singh volunteers states that immediately after

the occurrence which took place at about three in the morning,

he had seen petitioner run from the house thereafter the

statement of two or three other villagers who stayed that they

had heard in the village talks that petitioner had committed the

murder as a part of honour killing.

Be that as it may, there does not appear to be any

direct evidence or strong circumstances as against the petitioner,

let the above named petitioner be released on bail on furnishing

bail bond of Rs.10,000/- ( Rupees Ten thousand) with two

sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief

Judicial Magistrate, Patna in Parsa Bazar P.S.Case No. 135 of

2010.
