2. Learned counsel appearing for the applicant submitted that applicants are innocent and have falsely been implicated in the case. It is submitted that there is allegation by prosecution that applicants had kept Rs.1 Lac belonging to the deceased and they were not returning the amount and, therefore, deceased committed suicide. It is submitted that no offence of abetment is made out against applicants. In these circumstances, applicants may be released on anticipatory bail.
3. Learned Government Advocate appearing for the State opposed the anticipatory bail application and submitted that because applicants were not returning the money, therefore, under pressure deceased committed suicide.
4. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 5 . There is no positive act or role on part of applicants to induce deceased for commission of suicide. Non-returning of money may fall in other category of offence.
6. Considering the aforesaid, anticipatory bail application filed by the applicant is allowed. It is directed that in the event of arrest of applicant in connection with the aforesaid crime number and the offences, he be released on bail on furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rs.
