Case No. 67 of 2021 dated 04/06/2021 under Sections 498A/306/34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.

And In the matter of: - Mansura Begum & Ors.

...petitioners.

Mr. Mazahar Hossain Chowdhury ...for the petitioners.

Mr. Iqbal Kabir ...for the State.

Petitioners seek anticipatory bail.

Learned Advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the husband of the victim was granted bail by the jurisdictional Court. The police submitted charge sheet. Therefore, custodial interrogations of the petitioners are not required.

Learned Advocate appearing for the State draws the attention of the Court to the post-mortem report, the statement recorded under Section 161 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and to the photographs of the victim. He opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

Considering the gravity of the offence and the involvement of the petitioners therein, the post-mortem report and the photographs of the victim, we are unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected.

C.R.M. 8733 of 2021 is dismissed.
