JUDGEMENT

(1.) S. K. Agarwal, J. Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned A. G. A.

(2.) WHILE admitting the appeal this Court directed that the plea of bail be considered after receipt of the lower Court record. The record has now been received and the following facts assume significance so far as consideration of bail is concerned. The appellant is husband of the deceased. He had his hands also burnt in an attempt to save his wife while she was burning. He had also taken her to the hospital and admitted her at about 3. 00 a. m. , but she died as a consequence of severe burn injuries on the next morning at 7. 00 a. m. There is no evidence of any dying declaration having been recorded. He had also communicated the information of her death to her parents. The only fact which is missing is that he did not go to the police station to lodge any report.
