3. As per prosecution case, it is alleged that all the F.I.R. named accused persons, including these petitioners, committed murder of daughter of informant.
4. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners that petitioners are quite innocent and have committed no offence. Both parties are close door neighbors and due to petty dispute, this false and concocted case has been lodged. As a matter of fact, the deceased herself committed suicide. The post mortem report also goes to show that the cause of death is Asphyxia due to hanging. Petitioners claim clean antecedents.
5. On the other hand, learned A.P.P. for the State and learned counsel for the informant have vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners and submitted that petitioners are named in the F.I.R. with specific accusation that they, along with other accused persons, killed the daughter of informant. Daughter of the deceased has witnessed the entire occurrence and has alleged that all the accused persons, including these petitioners, committed assault as a result of which her mother died. Bare perusal of the post mortem report goes to show that several abrasion marks were there on the body of the deceased.

6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and specific and direct nature of accusation, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioners is rejected. (Prabhat Kumar Singh, J) shashank/- U T
