Judgment / Order
11/04/2017

This anticipatory bail application has been filed by the

petitioner apprehending his arrest in connection with F.I.R.

No.26/2014, P.S. Sanderao, Pali, for the offences under Sections

498A, 304B and 120B IPC.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Public

Prosecutor and learned counsel for the complainant. Perused the

material available on record.

The petitioner is in no manner related to the in-laws of the

deceased Smt.Urmila, who is alleged to have met with an

unnatural death within a period of seven years from her marriage.

The petitioner is said to be the registered owner of the vehicle

No.RJ22.GA.1725. The petitioner’s driver Mangi Lal was allegedly

driving the said vehicle with which, the deceased collided and

passed away. Babu Singh, brother-in-law (Jeth) of the deceased

informed the complainant Bhopal Singh, the father of the

deceased that she had met with an accident and thereby tried to

mislead him. However, initial charge-sheet appears to have been
(2 of 2)
[CRLMB-1174/2017]

filed for the offences under Sections 279 and 304-A I.P.C. and the

petitioner apparently has no connection with the alleged dowry

death.

In view of above and having regard to the facts and

circumstances available on record and upon a consideration of the

arguments advanced at the Bar, this Court is of the opinion that it

is a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner under

Section 438 Cr.P.C.

Accordingly, the bail application is allowed and it is directed

that in the event of arrest of petitioner Arjun Singh in connection

with F.I.R. No.26/2014, P.S. Sanderao, Pali, the petitioner shall be

released on bail; provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum

of Rs.50,000/- along with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the

satisfaction of the concerned Investigating Officer/S.H.O. on the

following conditions :-

(i). that the petitioner(s) shall make himself/herself/themselves
available for interrogation by a police officer as and when
required;

(ii). that the petitioner(s) shall not directly or indirectly make any
inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with
the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing
such facts to the court or any police officer; and

(iii). that the petitioner(s) shall not leave India without previous
permission of the court.
