as (Rejected) C.R.M. 8641 of 2020 (Via Video Conference) In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Mohanpur P.S. Case No.86 of 2020 dated 07.08.2020 under Sections 302/304B/498A/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 3 / 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

In the matter of : Smt. Saraswati Das & Anr.

... Petitioners.

Mr. Balaram Pandit.

...for the Petitioners.

Ms. Faria Hossain, Mr. Pratick Bose.

.....for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates appearing for the parties. Having considered the materials on record disclosing prima facie involvement of the petitioners in torturing the victim housewife who suffered unnatural death within three months of marriage, we are of the opinion that in view of the gravity of the offence this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

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