Having considered the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case and keeping in view the fact that the FIR alleges that the co- accused Sumit has collected money from the complainant's Company and had misappropriated the same and Sumit Awasthi has been granted bail; the FIR further stated that the other co-accused persons Vivek Tripathi, Anand Tripathi and R.N. Awasthi had issued fake receipts of money and all of them have already been granted bail and the only allegation against the applicant is of being involved in commission of the offence, without assigning any specific role to the applicant and she is languishing in jail since 01.03.2025 , I am of the view that the aforesaid facts are sufficient for making out a case for enlargement of the applicant on bail in the aforesaid case. 9.
