Learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner in furtherance of the common intention with the co-accused persons, has caused dowry death of his wife and caused disappearance of the evidence of the said dowry death. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false.

It is next submitted that the petitioner has been in jail custody since 17.10.2024 , as mentioned in para 1 of this bail application.

¶11

Learned Addl. P.P. appearing for the State vehemently opposes the prayer for bail and submits that there is direct and specific allegation against the petitioner of making persistent dowry demand of Rs. 1,00,000/- and in lieu of that, a gold chain and the undisputed fact remains that the deceased died within seven years of her marriage, otherwise than under normal circumstance, which is sufficient to constitute the offence punishable under Section 80 of BNS. It is therefore submitted that in view of the serious allegation against the petitioner, there is every chance of the petitioner absconding, if released on bail and also there is chance of the petitioner tampering with the evidence. It is therefore submitted that the petitioner ought not be released on bail at this stage.
