Thereafter, the deceased stayed at Mumbai with her husband and for sometime with her mother-in-law. In the FIR, the father of the deceased has stated that the applicants also subjected the deceased to cruelty with a view to coercing her to fulfil their unlawful demand of monies. However, the allegations against the present applicants are general in nature. Having regard to overall facts and circumstances of the case, in my opinion, custodial interrogation of the present applicant would not be necessary. Hence the following order: . In the event of arrest, the applicants to be released on bail in the sum of Rs.10,000/- each with one or two sureties in the like amount subject to the conditions stipulated in sub-section (2) of section 3 3 3 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
