As per allegation, the marriage of the daughter of the informant was solemnized with co-accused Indal Paswan in the year 2019.

¶18

the matrimonial inmates of her daughter had committed her murder. The informant rushed to her matrimonial house where he did not find the family members of the deceased. The persons of the vicinity informed him that his daughter was murdered in the previous night and the accused persons had concealed the dead body.

¶19

Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner No. 1 is brother-in-law and petitioner No. 2 is father-in-law of the deceased. They live separately from the house of the deceased and they have no concern with the day to day affairs of the couple.

¶20

The witnesses in case diary have supported the occurrence and they have named the petitioners. The investigation is still continuing. As such, I do not think it a fit case for anticipatory bail. Accordingly, it is rejected.

¶21

Office shall ensure that all defects are removed by the petitioners within the stipulated time provided in para-1 hereinabove, failing which the matter shall be brought to the notice of this Court.
