IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.8826 of 2010 1. NAFISA BEGAM 2. MD. SHAMSAD HUSSAIN @ SNU MIAN 3. MD. IRSHAD HUSSAIN @ GUDDU MIAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR . with Cr.Misc. No.8849 of 2010 MD.MUZAFFAR HUSSAIN . Versus STATE OF BIHAR . ----------- 2 12.03.2010 Heard both sides. Both these matters arise out of one criminal case and as such they have been heard together and are being disposed of by this common order. Petitioner of Cr. Misc. no. 8849 of 2010 is the husband of the victim. Petitioners of Cr. Misc. no. 8826 of 2010 are the other family members of the husband such as mother-in-law and brothers-in-law. They seek anticipatory bail in a case instituted under diverse sections of Penal Code including Section 304B IPC which was lodged sometime in the year 2006. Allegation as per the F.I.R. is that the victim who was married to the petitioner Muzaffar Hussain in the year 2003 was done to death in less than four years of her marriage in the matrimonial home in a very suspicious circumstance. The F.I.R. does disclose allegation of demand of dowry followed by torture. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits there are materials on record to indicate that adequate information was given to the informant of the present case. The victim/deceased was carried to the hospital where, 2 after some treatment, she died. Learned counsel fairly submits before this Court that he will not adopt the submissions made in the court below that the victim died of dysentery and vomiting. Impugned order indicates that in course of investigation, the witnesses have supported the prosecution case. Learned counsel further states that the informant later realised the mistake and has approached the court below by filing an application in this regard. There is no merit in these applications. They are, accordingly, rejected. This court however, observes that the present refusal for grant of anticipatory bail shall not come in the way of the court below while considering their prayer for grant of regular bail on merit. pkj ( Kishore K.
