Heard Mr Shinde, learned counsel for the applicants and Mr Dediya, learned APP for the respondent. 2. The applicants are seeking anticipatory bail in C.R No. 355 of 2008 of Panchavati Police Station. This crime has been registered under section 306 read with 34 of IPC. 3. It appears that there was a sale transaction between deceased Deoki Bhavsar and the applicants. The agreement for sale was executed on 20.10.2007 and the sale deed was executed on 20.12.2007. The alleged incident of committing suicide occurred on 15.6.2008 and Deoki Bhavsar died in the hospital on 18.6.2008. The FIR against the applicants alleging harassment to the deceased, which allegedly drove her to commit suicide, was lodged after more than one month on 23.7.2008 by the husband of the deceased. It is alleged that after execution of the sale deed in which there was a specific mention that the possession of the land was handed over to the purchasers, was in fact not handed over to them and, therefore, they were insisting and harassing the deceased for possession. The deceased left a suicide note mentioning about the harassment and cause of committing suicide wherein she had mentioned that she was subjected to harassment by the applicants and that they were insisting for possession of the land though the entire amount of consideration was not paid. Keeping the allegations in view and considering overall facts and circumstances of the case, in my opinion, this is a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to the applicants. Hence, I pass the following order. 4. In the event of arrest, the applicants be enlarged on bail in the sum of Rs.25,000/- each, with one or two sureties in the like amount, subject to the following condition: that the applicant shall report to the concerned police station on every 2nd and 4th Saturdays between 10 and 11 am till the conclusion of the trial. 5. While passing this order, I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case and the trial Court shall deal with the case without being influenced by the observations made in this order.
