This Criminal Petition, under Section 438 Cr.P.C., is filed seeking for pre-arrest bail in favour of the petitioners, who are arrayed as Accused Nos.2 & 3 in Crime No.201 of 2022 of Peddavoora Police Station, Nalgonda District. 3.

Making his submission, learned counsel for the petitioners contends that the petitioners are the parents of Accused No.1. Learned counsel submits that Accused No.1 was arrested and was enlarged on bail by the Sessions Court and the entire investigation is also completed. Learned counsel also states that Accused No.1 fell in love with the daughter of the de facto complainant and both got married and therefore, the petitioners demanding either

dowry or additional dowry does not arise at all and therefore, pre-arrest bail may be granted.

4.

On the other hand, the submission of the learned Additional Public Prosecutor is that the petitioners have committed offences punishable under Section 498-A IPC and also Section 306 IPC. As per the material available on record, the daughter of the de facto complainant committed suicide by consuming insecticide poison. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor, during the course of submission, stated that sixteen witnesses were examined till now. Therefore, it is clear that the material part of investigation is completed. Further, as per the contents of the complaint itself, it is clear that the marriage between Accused No.1 and the daughter of the de facto complainant is a love marriage.

Therefore, taking into consideration all these aspects, this Court is of the view that the request of the petitioners can be honoured, however, conditionally.
