IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.24290 of 2010 MEERA DEVI & ORS Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03/ 27.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned P.P. for the State. Petitioners apprehend their arrest in connection with Naugachiya P.S. Case no. 265 of 2009 registered under sections 304B/201 IPC. Admittedly, petitioners are in-laws of the deceased. At the very outset, learned counsel for the petitioners points out that the husband of the deceased has already been granted regular bail by 4th Additional Sessions Judge, Naugachiya on 17.6.2010 passed in B.P. No. 122/2010 on the ground of compromise as well as other grounds. Though the offence under section 304B IPC is not compoundable but considering this aspect of the matter that the husband of the deceased has already been released on bail, I think it proper to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, this anticipatory bail petition is allowed and it is ordered that the petitioners (Meera Devi, Bijay Singh and Ajay Singh) in the event of arrest/ surrender within 30 days from the date of communication of the order be released on bail in connection with Naugachiya P.S. Case no. 265 of 2009 on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000-/ each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the ACJM, Naugachiya subject to condition as laid down under section 438(2) of the Cr. P.C. shahid (Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J))
