4.   Learned advocate appearing on behalf of the applicants would 

submit  that  considering  the  nature  of offence,  the  applicants  may  be 

enlarged on anticipatory bail by imposing suitable conditions. Learned 

Advocate for the applicants on instructions states that the applicants are 

ready and willing to abide by all the conditions, including the condition 

with regard to the powers of Investigating Agency to seek remand of the 

petitioners; subject to the petitioners right to oppose it. 

5.  On   the   other   hand,   the   learned   APP   appearing   for   the 

respondent­State has opposed this application. 

6.  Having considered  the rival contentions  it is noticed that before 

the unfortunate death of the victim, there were certain disputes amongst 

the   victim   and   her   in­laws   which   had   given   rise   to   few   complaints. 

Reference  to the same  is also made  by  the  deceased  in her suicide 

note. Mainly the victim had a grievance about filing of such complaints 

against her when she is alleged to be of a violent nature as pointed out 

by   the   learned   counsel   for   the   petitioner.   He   pointed   out   that   as 

indicated   in   such   complaints   and   even   otherwise   she   had   on   few 

occasions attempted an assault and infact assaulted her husband with 

the knife. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that she had also 

attempted to commit suicide on three occasions earlier. Thus looking to 

the overall circumstances  of the case, in the opinion of this court the 

case for admitting the petitioners to bail in anticipation of their arrest is

made out. 

7.  In the result, this application is allowed. It is directed that in the 

event of arrest of the applicants herein in connection with FIR registered 

at C.R. No.I­260 of 2017 at Sector 7 Police Station, Gandhinagar the 

applicants shall be released on bail on their furnishing a personal bond 

of Rs.10,000/­ (Rupees ten thousands only) each with one surety of the 

like amount on the following conditions that they shall:

(a) cooperate with the investigation and make themselves 

available for interrogation whenever required;

(b)   remain   present   at   the   concerned   Police   Station   on 

15.12.2017 between 11.00 a.m. and 2.00 p.m.;

(c) not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or 

promise to any person acquainted with the fact of the case 

so as to dissuade him/them from disclosing such facts to 

the court or to any police officer;

(d) not obstruct or hamper the police investigation and not 

to  play  mischief  with  the  evidence  collected  or  yet  to  be 

collected by the police;

(e) at the time of execution of bond, furnish the address to 

the investigating officer and the court concerned and shall 

not change their residence till the final disposal of the case 

till further orders;

(f) not leave India without the permission of the Court and if

having   passport,   shall   deposit   the   same   before   the   Trial 

Court within a week; and 

(g) it would be open to the Investigating Officer to file an 

application for remand if he considers it proper and just and 

the learned Magistrate would decide the same on merits;

8. Despite this order, it would be open for the Investigating Agency 

to   apply   to   the   competent   Magistrate,   for   Police   remand   of   the 

applicants.   The   applicants   shall   remain   present   before   the   learned 

Magistrate  on the first  date  of hearing  of such  application  and  on all 

subsequent occasions, as may be directed by the learned Magistrate. 

This would be sufficient to treat the accused in the judicial custody for 

the   purpose   of   entertaining   application   of   the   prosecution   for   police 

remand. This is, however, without prejudice to the right of the accused 

to seek stay against an order of remand, if, ultimately, granted, and the 

power   of   the   learned   Magistrate   to   consider   such   a   request   in 

accordance with law. It is clarified that the applicants, even if, remanded 

to the Police custody, upon completion of such period of Police remand, 

shall   be   set   free   immediately,   subject   to   other   conditions   of   this 

anticipatory bail order.

9.  At the trial, the Trial Court shall not be influenced by the prima­

facie observations made by this Court while enlarging the applicants on 

bail.   Rule   is   made   absolute   to   the   above   extent.  Direct   service  is
