FIR has been lodged by father of the deceased who alleged that his daughter was married in the family of the petitioners in the year 2004. In 2006 gauna was celebrated and thereafter there had been demand for dowry in the form of various objects which created bad blood in the family.

So far these petitioners are concerned, they have tried to explain reason for death on the basis of annexure-3. It is also submitted that information was given to the family of the deceased and in that circumstance, prayer for bail of these petitioners ought to be considered since husband is yet in custody and responsibility to some extent can be saddled upon him .
