The present bail application has been filed under Section 439
Cr.P.C. on behalf of the petitioner, who is in custody in relation to
F.I.R. No.277/2016, P.S. Dhorimanna, District Barmer, for the
offences under Sections 498A, 304B I.P.C. and in the alternative
302 I.P.C.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public
Prosecutor. Perused the material available on record.
Shri Shah learned counsel for the petitioner contends that
soon after her marriage, the deceased Smt.Murti eloped with one
Jetha Ram and owing to the said incident, her relations with her
and husband Bhagirath Ram became strained. Owing to this,
Smt.Murti committed suicide. In support of this contention, he
drew the Court’s attention to the statement of Smt.Mangi Devi,
mother of the deceased. He urges that there is no evidence worth
(2 of 2)
[CRLMB-4228/2017]
the name on record to show that the petitioner being the father in
law ever harassed or humiliated the deceased on account of
demand of dowry and prays that the petitioner deserves to be
enlarged on bail.
Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposes the
submissions advanced by the petitioner’s counsel.
Having regard to the entirety of facts and circumstances as
available on record and upon a consideration of the arguments
advanced at the Bar, this Court is of the opinion that the petitioner
deserves to be enlarged on bail.
Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered
that the accused-petitioner namely Nimba Ram arrested in
connection with F.I.R. No.277/2016, P.S. Dhorimanna, District
Barmer shall be released on bail; provided he furnishes a personal
bond of Rs.50,000/- and two surety bonds of Rs.25,000/- each to
the satisfaction of the learned trial court with the stipulation to
appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when
called upon to do so.
