Versus STATE OF BIHAR . ----- 03. 04.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. Learned counsel for the informant is also present. Informant’s daughter is found dead in her matrimonial house. Both the petitioners viz. mother-in-law and husband are alleged for killing her. The only defence is about no motive of killing after ten years of the marriage while earlier there was no demand, no allegation, no complain to any authorities for torture or ill-behaviour. F.I.R. in itself is clear that ill-treatment was given to the deceased by her husband. Though mother-in-law informed informant’s family members about suffering of her husband from some ailment then only after arrival the death of informant’s daughter could be detected while the post mortem was conducted a ligature mark is found all around the neck clearly a case of homicidal death. Accordingly, prayer of petitioners for anticipatory bail stand rejected. Vikash (Mandhata Singh, J.)
