ORDER

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The learned

HCGP has not filed any statement of objections, but orally

opposed the petition.

2. The petitioner is the husband of the deceased. Their

marriage was performed on 16.6.2016. The case of the

prosecution is that the deceased poured kerosene oil on herself

and succumbed to burn injuries in her house on 1.6.2019. Post

mortem examination indicates that deceased had sustained first

and second degree burns over the front of head, face and neck,

front of chest, front and back of abdomen, front and back of

upper and front and back of lower limbs up to knees. The cause

of death is stated to be on account of shock as a result of burn

injuries sustained. The mother of the victim is cited as one of

the eye witness. According to her at the time of incident, she

was also present in the house and on account of the abuses

made by the petitioner herein, she poured kerosene on herself

and on fire.

3. Having regard to the material relied on by the

prosecution and the investigation having been completed, in my

view, it is not proper to extend the custody of the petitioner only

by way of punishment.

4. In that view of the matter the petition is allowed.

a) Petitioner is ordered to be enlarged on bail on

furnishing a bond in a sum of Rs.1,00,000/-

(Rupees One Lakh only) with two sureties for

the likesum to the satisfaction of the

jurisdictional court.

when required.

prosecution witnesses in whatsoever manner.

offences.
