Chandigarh, June 9

A local court has dismissed the bail application of an accused in a dowry death case. Gian Singh was arrested after his wife allegedly committed suicide by consuming poison.

The FIR was registered on the complaint of Vijinder, the brother of deceased Pinky. He alleged that the accused used to harass his sister for dowry.

He said Pinky was married to the accused in 2018 and died in 2019 due to poisoning.

The counsel for the accused argued that his client had been falsely implicated in the case and was in custody since September 2019. Public prosecutor opposed the bail application.

After hearing the arguments of both sides, the court dismissed the bail application.
