Sanjay Jha @ Kanhai
Versus
The State Of Bihar
----------------------------------
03. 21.10.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned
counsel for the State.
It may not be a case of dowry death due to period
elapsed more than seven years after the marriage, but death is due to
burn injury, is not denied rather is said suicide committed by the
deceased herself with further submission of alibi as petitioner was
arrested from Faridabad from the place of his working goes against
him taking a circumstance against him. If his (petitioner’s) case is
accepted about suicide then natural conduct should be informing of
the incident to deceased’s parents. Petitioner, if really at that time
was at Faridabad, he should come to his village, but after the
incident, he is found at Faridabad.
Accordingly, petitioner’s prayer for regular bail stands
rejected even after considering his custody since 29.11.2010.
However, the trial Court is directed to expedite the
trial.
