The Application is for anticipatory bail. (2) CRI.APP. 3695.2010 2. The applicants are relatives of husband of complainant Smt. Nilima. She filed FIR dated 22nd August, 2010 alleging that her husband-Ravindra and the applicants attempted to kill her on 22.8.2010 by pouring kerosene on her person and by attempting to set her ablaze. 3. Perusal of the FIR prima facie shows that complainant Smt. Nilima was residing separately with her husband-Ravindra in a rented premises situated near Bhusawal-Sakri Phata. The applicants were not residing together with them. There is no prima facie evidence to show that complainant Smt. Nilima sustained any burn injuries. The medico-legal certificate reveals that she only complained of pain in right forearm and left forearm. She also complained of pains in back. The x-ray examination report does not disclose any fracture. A single abrasion on her right forearm was found which was of 1 cm. and was simple in nature. It does not appear that the applicants attempted to commit homicidal death of Smt. Nilima in the relevant evening. (3) CRI.APP. 3695.2010 4. The applicants are likely to be humiliated due to the arrest. It appears that she roped in all the family members of her husband. Her husband is released on bail. In view of attending circumstances and the material on record, the custodial interrogation of the applicants may not be required and, therefore, they are entitled to seek liberty. 5. In the result, the Application is allowed. The applicants are directed to be released on bail on furnishing of bail bonds in sum of Rs.15,000/- (Rs. Fifteen Thousand) each alongwith one surety bond each before the Arresting Officer and on condition that they shall attend the concerned Police Station on each Sunday between 10.00 am. to 2.00 pm. for three consecutive Sundays hereafter and shall co- operate with the Investigation Officer.
