1. Considering the fact that there is a violation of Prohibition of Child Marriage Act and the victim died within one year of marriage and there are evidence, prima facie, showing that the husband, mother-in-law and the present petitioner have committed physical and mental torture upon the victim which had resulted in her unfortunate death, we are not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

2. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is rejected.
