Criminal Misc.-M No. 23626 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. -M No. 23626 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision: 26.8.2011 Asha Devi and another .. Petitioners v. State of Haryana .. Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. Sanjiv Gupta, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Subhash Godara, Additional Advocate General, Haryana. Mr. Satbir Gill, Advocate for the complainant. ... Rajesh Bindal J. Prayer in the present petition is for grant of pre-arrest bail to the petitioners. Petitioner No. 1 has been arrayed as an accused, whereas name of petitioner No. 2 is not mentioned in the FIR. The FIR was registered on account of suicide committed by one Vijay. The complainant is brother of the deceased. The allegations are that there was some fight between Balbir (another brother of the deceased) on one side and Sube son of Om Parkash and Prem son of Beg Raj on the other side, in which Balbir allegedly received certain injuries. The deceased committed suicide alleging that Om Parkash had used certain unparliamentary language in their house and the street to defame the family and not tolerating the same, Vijay committed suicide. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that name of petitioner No. 1 does not figure in any incident which allegedly happened prior to the date when the deceased committed suicide. Her name has been Criminal Misc.-M No. 23626 of 2011 [2] mentioned only in the suicide note allegedly recovered from the possession of the deceased. Her husband has also been involved. The name of petitioner No. 2 is not mentioned in the suicide note allegedly recovered from the possession of the deceased. Kind of allegations in the FIR do not make out a case for instigating Vijay to commit suicide. Petitioner No. 1 is a young lady having two minor children. On the other hand, learned counsels for the State as well as the complainant submitted that the deceased committed suicide on account of abuses hurled by Om Parkash and false allegations levelled by him in a complaint made to the police regarding the family of the deceased. He had also threatened that he will defame the family of the deceased in the society. Not tolerating the same, the deceased committed suicide. It was further submitted that the suicide note was recovered from the possession of the deceased, which specifically named Asha Devi wife of Sushil Kumar(petitioner No. 1) as the person responsible for his death. Heard learned counsel for the parties. Considering the contentions raised by learned counsel for the parties and finding that apparently no such incident had happened in the presence of the petitioners prior to the death of Vijay, which could instigate him to commit suicide, in my opinion, the petitioners are not required to be taken into custody for interrogation. Let the petitioners join investigation and appear before the Investigating Officer on 6.9.2011 at 10.00 A.M. In case of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on furnishing of bail bonds to the satisfaction of the Arresting/Investigating Officer. They shall appear before the Investigating Officer as and when called upon for further investigation. They shall also be bound by all the conditions as contained in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The petition stands disposed of. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 26.8.2011 mk
