DATE : 8 th October,2009. 1. Heard learned Counsel for the applicants/accused and learned APP for State. 2. Learned Counsel has invited my attention to the F.I.R. and other surrounding circumstances to emphasis that there could not be any role so far as applicant/accused no.2 - Prayagabai w/o Ganpat Rathod, she incidentally resides in the adjoining house and is a sister of Rukhmanbai. 3. On instructions, Counsel withdraws the application of applicant no.1 2 -Rukhmanbai. It is accordingly allowed to be withdrawn and disposed of. 4. So far as applicant no.2 - Prayagabai w/o Ganpat Rathod is concerned, considering the accusations made in the F.I.R. of her instigating applicant no.1 - Rukhamanbai, her further custody will not warrant, as she is in custody from 4th September, 2009. 5. It is sorry state of affair that marriage of Chandrakala was performed on 5th March, 2009 with Deelip with religious formalities and the agreed gifts or dowry was also parted with by father - Shantilal Jadhav. In spite of that, for purchase of so-called transport vehicle, there was persistent demand allegedly made by the relations, giving rise to the event of suicidal death of said Chandrakala on 4th September, 2009. 6. In the factual matrix referred above, since role of applicant no.2 – Prayagabai, being minimal, her further 3 custody not warranted. Hence, order. 7. The accused/applicant no.2 - Prayagabai w/o Ganpat Rathod, be released on her furnishing PR bond and surety in the sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand). 8. The accused/applicant shall not leave limits of Aurangabad district for a period of one year and shall make herself available to the Investigator whenever so commanded. 9. Criminal Application in respect of Rukhamanbai w/o Shama Rathod is allowed to be withdrawn and disposed of with liberty. ( K.U.CHANDIWAL ) JUDGE bdv/cran3365.09
