Act, Police Station Teelamod, District Ghaziabad, during pendency of the trial. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits, applicant is father-in- law of deceased and on the basis of false allegation he has been made accused in the present matter along with others including mother-in-law of deceased, Salma alias Sangeeta and co-accused Salma alias Sangeeta has been released by this Court and her bail order has been annexed at page 64 of the paper book and as far as allegations are concerned, the case of applicant is at par with her. 4. He further argued, even applicant resided along with his wife i.e. co-accused Salma alias Sangeeta and deceased died due to hanging and, therefore, prima facie it appears to be a case of suicidal death and after considering these facts, mother-in-law of the deceased has been released on bail. 5. He further argued, applicant is not having any previous criminal history and even there is no specific allegation against him and in the present matter, he is in jail since 10.12.2025 i.e. for last five months. 6. Per contra, learned AGA, however, opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the argument on facts  advanced by learned counsel for applicant. 7.
