On perusal of the suicide note, it appears that the applicant maintained an illicit relationship with the deceased by promising to marry her. The suicide note further states that the applicant had beaten her and forced her into maintaining physical relations. In the suicide note it is mentioned that the applicant's actions, including forcing the deceased into physical relations and beating her, drove her to commit suicide.

5.

Prima facie, the actions of the applicant, who is a police officer have lead the deceased to commit suicide. Therefore, this is not a case to grant anticipatory bail.

6.

Needless to mention that the trial Court shall not get influenced by prima facie observations made in this order while considering regular bail or at trial stage.
