The alleged offence is under sections 306 read with section 34 IPC. According to the prosecution, one Sajeevan, his wife and child committed suicide and one child escaped from the attempt. First Information Statement was given by one of the neighbours, based on which a crime is registered under the caption “unnatural death”. During the inquest, a suicidal note was found out by which responsibility was fixed upon the petitioners for the suicide. Investigation is being conducted incorporating section 306 IPC and 34 IPC . 3. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the deceased Sajeevan was pressurizing the petitioners to withdraw the complaint lodged by the 2nd petitioner against him, but the 2nd petitioner was not prepared to do so. A “suicidal note” is concocted against petitioners for the purpose of harassing the petitioners. There are other criminal cases also against the deceased Sajeevan. The deceased had also lodged complaint against the petitioners. BA 4354/08 -2- 4. The application is opposed. On going through the case diary and on hearing both sides, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail, since investigation is necessary involving custodial interrogation of the petitioners. This application is dismissed. K. HEMA, JUDGE. mn.
