The petitioners seek anticipatory bail in a case

Code.
The prosecution case is that the daughter of the
informant was killed by her in-laws on account of non-fulfilment
of demands of dowry. However after investigation it was found
that the deceased had herself consumed poison, due to which
she died and charge sheet was submitted only against the
mother-in-law u/s.306 I.P.C., whereas final report was
submitted with regard to the present petitioners, who happen to
be the sister-in-law, brother-in-law and father-in-law of the
deceased.
In view of such, in the event of surrender of the
petitioners, named above, within four weeks from today in
connection with Nagarnausa P.S.case No.95 of 2009, they shall
be released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.

each to the satisfaction of Sri Rajesh Pandey, Judicial
