2. Petitioners seek bail, who are in custody since 23.02.2026, in connection with Rahui P.S. Case No. 85 of 2026, F.I.R. dated 22.02.2026 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 80(2), 61(2) of the B.N.S., 2023.
3. Allegation against the petitioners is of committing torture and caused death to the informant's sister due to nonfulfillment of demand of dowry.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have clean antecedents and they have been falsely implicated in the present case. He further submits that the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.32623 of 2026(2) dt.13-05-2026 2/3 allegation as alleged in the F.I.R. is false and fabricated and the petitioners have not committed any offence as alleged in the F.I.R. He further submits that the petitioners have been made accused merely on the ground that the petitioners are in-laws of the deceased and from perusal of the F.I.R. it appears that there is no specific allegation of any assault or overt act or demand of dowry attributed against these petitioners rather there is general and omnibus allegation against all the accused persons including these petitioners. In fact, the victim has committed suicide herself and petitioners are in custody since 23.02.2026.
