Heard the parties
2. Petitioners have been made accused in connection with Tandwa P.S. Case No. 128 of 2025, for the offences registered under Sections 80 and 3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023, pending in the Court of Sri S.S. Tirkey, learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Chatra.
3. Petitioner No. 1 happens to be the father-in-law and Petitioner No. 2 happens to be the husband of the deceased namely Sunita Kumari, who died due to asphyxia because of hanging in her matrimonial home.
4. Attention has been drawn towards the finding of the impugned order, from perusal of which, it appears that the deceased was having affairs with another person. She frequently used to talk to him due to which, there was dispute between the husband and wife and as such she committed suicide.
5. In view of the aforesaid facts, I am inclined to release the petitioners, on bail. Accordingly, the petitioners, named above, are directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of Sri S.S.
