3. In view of the aforesaid materials and the opinion of the post mortem doctor with regard to cause of death i.e. homicidal hanging, we are of the opinion this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail.

4. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

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