3. Neighbours’ statements implicate the petitioners in holding out both physical and mental torture upon the victim.

4. Apparently, the victim committed suicide.

5. Learned Advocate appearing for the petitioners refers the medical documents of the victim and submits that, the victim was suffering from a medical condition wherein the victim possessed suicidal thoughts.

6. Simply because the victim was with the medical condition as claimed on behalf of the petitioners does not mean that the petitioners were not guilty of meting out physical and mental torture as recorded by the neighbours.

7. Considering the gravity of the offence and the involvement of the petitioners in the incident, I am unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

8. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected.

9. C.R.M. (A) 3383 of 2026 is dismissed.
