anticipatory bail after noting the facts of the case, thereafter, the learned counsel draws the attention of the court to para-10 of the order dated 15.05.2024 in Cr. Misc. No.14461/2024 to submit that the same records- “ The learned counsel for the petitioners next submit that it absolutely does not stand to reason that the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant submits that he has instructions not oppose the regular bail application of the husband of the deceased and the bail application of the husband of the deceased was also not opposed before the learned District Judge, when from perusal of the allegations as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that the informant without any discrimination has alleged against all the accused persons equally, this amply demonstrates that the informant for some personal reason is bent upon ensuring that the petitioners be not granted the privilege of anticipatory bail.” The learned counsel placing reliance on the fact of the case, as recorded in the order dated 15.05.2024 in Cr. Misc. No.14461/2024, seeks bail for the petitioner, who is in custody since 27.09.2023.
