In Cr Misc No 22730 of 2009, it is the husband of the deceased who is the petitioner. All of them apprehend arrest in Mashrakh Police Station Case No 44 of 2005 instituted under Sections 304B/201 of Indian Penal Code. It is alleged that the marriage of the deceased took place on 14.05.2002 and on 23.03.2005; the informant came to know that the deceased had died because of serious burn injuries. Petitioners submit that in fact the deceased had died because of leakage of liquefied petroleum gas which resulted in her cloths catching fire. Everyone had been informed and participated in the cremation but subsequently, only to create problem, the present case was instituted. Be that as it may, on petitioner Sanjeev Singh’s surrendering in the Court below and praying for regular bail, petitioners Jaglal Singh, Bhuli Singh and Sushila Devi will be enlarged on bail of Rs 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the 2 2 satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Saran at Chapra in Mashrakh Police Station Case No 44 of 2005 subject to all conditions as laid down in Section 438 (2) of Criminal Procedure Code if they surrender before the Court below within four weeks from today. So far as Cr Misc No 22730 of 2009 is concerned, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner Sanjeev Singh. His prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. He should surrender before the Court below and pray for regular bail and if he does so, his prayer for bail shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order.
