IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.24060 of 2008 RITA SINGH Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 04.07.2008 Heard the counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner, Reeta Singh is mother-in-law of the deceased, Rupa Singh. There are two sets of statement of the deceased; the first statement was recorded on 12.11.2007 at Jiyalal Kalawati Memorial Clinic, Sitamarhi and the second statement was recorded on 14.11.2007 at PMCH emergency ward. In her first statement, she has stated that she caught fire accidentally and in the second statement; she has stated that this petitioner poured Kerosene oil and set fire to her body. Considering these contradictions, I find that this is a case for grant of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail is allowed. In the event of above-named petitioner’s arrest or surrender within four weeks from today in the court below, she will be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of CJM, Sitamarhi in connection with Majorganj P.S.
