IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.43397 of 2009 KAMLA DEVI WIFE OF INDRASAN RAI RESIDENT OF VILLAGE BEYAPUR, P.S. MANER, DISTRICT PATNA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR . ----------- 3 22/03/2010 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The three married sisters-in-law who have been granted anticipatory bail can never be equated with the petitioner who happens to be the mother-in-law of the deceased. There is every allegation about demand of dowry, torture for its non fulfillment soon before her death and death in matrimonial house within seven years of marriage. The submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the deceased was admitted in the hospital finds no corroboration from the evidence collected by the I.O. in the case diary which can only be relied at the moment. In the circumstances, prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner is hereby rejected. She may, however, surrender in the court of the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Danapur in Maner P.S. Case No. 138/2009 and seek regular bail which will be considered and - 2 - decided on merits in accordance with law without being prejudiced by this order of rejection. AMIN (Mandhata Singh, J.)
