Learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have earlier moved before this court in A.B.A. No. 5851 of 2024, however, the same was dismissed as withdrawn, as the son of these petitioners, who happened to be the husband of the deceased was subsequently arrested and they decided that once his son will be granted bail, the petitioners will move on the fresh ground and after granting regular bail to the son of these [ 2025:JHHC:37226] -2- petitioners, the petitioners have moved before the learned Sessions Judge on the fresh ground, however, the learned Sessions Judge has been pleased to reject the prayer for anticipatory bail of these petitioners. He then submits that in the investigation, the facts have come in favour of the petitioners, in view of that in the changed circumstance, the second anticipatory bail application has been filed. 4. Learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners happened to be the father-in-law and mother-in-law respectively of the deceased. He next submits that the husband of the deceased was arrested and later on he was released on regular bail. He then submits that the deceased was residing along with her husband in the State of Gujarat in the city of Surat, where her husband was working. He further submits that so far as these petitioners are concerned, they are residing at home village in the district of Giridih. He also submits that the gist of the investigation has been disclosed in para-75 of the case diary and the I.O. has given the opinion on the investigation so far as these petitioners are concerned the demand of dowry itself are not proved and he has also stated that the deceased was residing along with her husband in Surat (Gujarat). He next submits that a son was born out of the wedlock, in view of that the husband of the deceased has advised his wife to stay for some time in home village and not accompany him to Surat and he will take her back later on. He further submits that only because husband advised to stay for sometime in the village, the deceased has committed suicide. 5. Learned A.P.P. appearing for the State has opposed the prayer and submits that the petitioners happened to be the father-in-law and mother-in-law respectively of the deceased. [ 2025:JHHC:37226] -3- 6. In view of the above, it is well known that in the changed circumstance, the second anticipatory bail can be maintained and looking into the contents of para-75 of the case diary, it transpires that what has been stated by the learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioner that has been disclosed by the I.O. in the said para. In the attending facts and circumstances of the case, I am inclined to provide privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 7. Accordingly, the petitioners, named above, are hereby directed to surrender before the learned court within three weeks from today, and in the event of their surrender/arrest, the petitioners, above named, shall be released on bail, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each, with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Giridih, in connection with Jamua P.S.
