1. Md. Ali Son of Md. Wajid

2. Md. Irfan Son of Md. Ali both are resident of village - Itmadi, P.S. Bieldaur, District - Khagaria .... .... Petitioner/s

Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE KISHORE KUMAR MANDAL ORAL ORDER 02-03-2016 Heard the counsel for the petitioners and the State. The petitioners seek anticipatory bail in Beldaur P.S. Case No. 172 of 2014, G.R. No. 2143 of 2014 registered under Sections 304(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The two petitioners are father-in-law and brother-in-law, respectively, of the victim who was done to death in the mysterious circumstances in the matrimonial home within seven years of her marriage. The informant has alleged that on information received about her unnatural death, he went to in-laws house of his niece and found the dead body lying on a cot having external marks of violence on her body. The postmortem of the deceased depicts her unnatural death. In course of investigation, several witnesses have supported the allegation of perpetrated torture on her and causing her death inside the matrimonial home.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.54388 of 2015 (4) dt.02-03-2016 2/2 The contention of the petitioners is that the witnesses are interested and that the victim was afforded medical assistance shall be seen at the trial.

Considering the seriousness of the allegations and the evidence/material reflected from the record including the impugned order, I do not find it a fit case where the privilege of anticipatory bail can be extended to the petitioners. Prayer is accordingly rejected.

The petitioners may surrender and seek regular bail. (Kishore Kumar Mandal, J) rohit/- U T
