"Supplementary affidavit filed today on behalf of applicant and the
same is taken on record.
Heard learned counsel for applicant(s), learned A.G.A. and perused
the record.
This bail application has been preferred by the accused-applicant(s),
Anil Singh and Aneeta Singh, who are involved in Case Crime No.
182 of 2020, under Sections 306 I.P.C. P.S.- Kuberasthan, District-
Kushinagar.
Learned counsel for the applicants has submitted that initially the
F.I.R was lodged under Section 302 I.P.C and during investigation
same was converted into Section 306 I.P.C. There is no evidence of
abetment to commit suicide by the deceased. There is no external
injury on any part of the body of deceased except a ligature mark.
Deceased was the real daughter of applicant no. 1 and step daughter
of applicant-2. She was a regular student and was getting education.
While she was going to attend the coaching and was talking with her
friend on mobile, the mobile was snatched away by other persons of
the family. Moreover, the informant has filed the F.I.R against
applicant no. 1 and his family which was registered as case crime no.
243 of 2004 under Section 498A,323 I.P.C, P.S Kuberasthan, District
Kushinagar, in that case crime a compromise took place between the
parties on 15.04.2000. The compromise was filed in the court
concerned and the same was verified by the court concerned,
compromise was Annexure-6 to the affidavit. On the basis of
compromise in that case applicant and other accused were
acquitted. .
Learned A.G.A vehemently opposed the contentions made by the
learned counsel for the applicants and contended that in the
postmortem report the hyodbone was fractured. The offence of
Section 302 I.P.C was converted into Section 306 I.P.C without any
contrary evidence collected by the Investigating Officer.
Admittedly, the death of deceased took place in the house of
applicant and in the postmortem report hyodbone was shown
fractured. Cause of death is asphyxia as a result of antemortem
hanging. Admittedly, deceased was residing at the house of
informant and was studying there just one day before the occurrence
she had reached to the house of her father. Contentions made by the
learned counsel for the applicant that in case under Section
498A,323 I.P.C under a compromise certain amount was deposited in
the account of Priyanka keeping in view the future of Priyanka but no
cogent explanation on behalf of applicant in regard to unnatural
death of deceased in his house just on the very next day when she
reached from her grandmaternal's house.
In view of the facts and circumstances of the case and the
submissions made by learned counsel for both sides and going
through the record, it is not a fit case for bail.
Accordingly, bail application is rejected. "
Just after the expiry of period of two months and few days, this second bail
application has been filed.
