Mr.Lalan Kumar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SUNIL KUMAR PANWAR ORAL ORDER 27-10-2021 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned APP for the State.

The instant application for anticipatory bail has been filed by the petitioners apprehending their arrest in connection with Runnisaidpur P.S. Case no. 268 of 2019. instituted for the offence under Sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. As per allegation in the FIR, petitioners are in-laws of the brother of the informant and have killed him by hanging. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners has submitted that petitioners are innocent and have been falsely implicated in this case. In the present case there is no chance of their involvement as they are in-laws of the deceased. In fact

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.4667 of 2020(4) dt.27-10-2021 2/2 deceased has himself committed suicide by hanging himself. Learned APP has opposed the prayer of bail.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the fact that body of the deceased was found at the house of he petitioners, it also revealed from the postmortem report that the cause of death due to asphyxia leading to CR failure as a result of hanging, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. The prayer for anticipatory bail stands rejected.

However, if the petitioners surrender and pray for regular bail, the same shall be considered by the court below, without being prejudiced by this order of rejection. (Sunil Kumar Panwar, J) sushma/- U
