                                       ORAL ORDER

2   28-01-2026                  Heard the parties.

                                2. The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in

                   connection with Biharsharif P.S. Case No. 582 of 2025

                   registered for the offences punishable under Sections 80, 238

                   and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

                                3. The marriage of the sister of the informant was

                   solemnized with one Ravi Kumar on 07.02.2025. On

                   15.10.2025, the informant received a call that his sister has been

                   done to death, whereupon he reached to her matrimonial house

                   and found the dead body of his sister was lying on Sofa. It is

                   further alleged that just after few minutes, the elder brother-in-

                   law of the husband of his sister and his friend, who are the

                   petitioner nos. 1 and 2 before this Court, along with the mother

                                            2/3




          of the informant took the victim on a four wheeler vehicle.

          However, after two hours they have come out with the dead

          body of the deceased. The informant suspected the hands of the

          petitioners in causing the death of the deceased.

                       4. Learned Advocate for the petitioners submitted that

          even as per the F.I.R., there is neither any allegation of demand

          of dowry nor torture. Moreover, even if the allegation is taken

          to be true, for the sake of argument, it is the case of the

          prosecution that the unconscious sister of the informant or the

          deceased was taken to hospital along with her mother, however,

          she could not survive and thereafter the dead body was brought

          to the house. Post-mortem was also done and it has been found

          that she died on account of asphyxia, due to hanging. In fact,

          when the informant came to know about the false implication of

          the petitioners, he immediately filed a petition before the

          learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nalanda with a categorical

          statement that his sister has committed suicide, as she was

          suffering from various ailments and there is no role of the

          petitioners in causing her death. This Court is also apprised that

          the husband of the deceased is already in custody for the last

          two months, moreover, the petitioners have got fair antecedent

          and they undertake that they will fully cooperate in the

                       proceeding of the court.

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

                       vehemently opposes the bail application.

                                    6. Regard being had to the submissions made on

                       behalf of the parties and considering the nature of allegation

                       levelled against the petitioners, coupled with the post-mortem

                       report as well as the petition filed by the informant categorically

                       stating that the petitioners have no role in causing the death of

                       the deceased, let the petitioners, named above, in the event of

                       their arrest or surrender before the court below within four

                       weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this

                       order, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of

                       Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand) each with two sureties of the

                       like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial

                       Magistrate, Nalanda at Bihar Sharif, Nalanda in connection with

                       Biharsharif P.S. Case No. 582 of 2025, subject to the condition

                       as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik

                       Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 with the further condition that one of

                       the bailors shall be the own/close relative of the petitioners.
