And

In Re : Sudhir Das
…… petitioner

Md. Wasim Akram
…for the petitioner

Md. Kutubuddin
…for the State

Husband was granted bail by the Jurisdictional Court.

Police filed charge sheet.

Petitioner before us is the father-in-law.

As to whether there was any abetment to the commission

of the suicide at the behest of the petitioner may be decided at

the trial.

In such circumstances, we grant anticipatory bail to the

petitioner.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the

petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of

Rs.10,000/-, with two sureties of like amount each, to the
2

satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be subject to the

conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of

Criminal Procedure, 1973. The petitioner shall appear on every

date before the Jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed

for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional

Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the

petitioner in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail

granted without further reference to this Court.

This application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed.
