10.10.2023. 4. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the applicant that applicant is a lady and has been falsely implicated in present case. He further submits that Ghuru Prasad, brother of the deceased has been examined as P.W.-1 before the learned trial Court and in his cross-examination, he deposed that he was not present at the place of occurrence. When he came to know about the fact that his brother had died, he reached the place of occurrence. 5. It is also submitted by learned counsel for the applicant that Ghuru Prasad, P.W.-1 is the complainant and he has not supported the prosecution case. Similarly, Sundara Devi, mother of the deceased has been examined as P.W.-2 and she has also not supported the prosecution case in her cross-examination. She has been declared
hostile. The applicant has no previous criminal history and is languishing in jail since 23.12.2022. 6. Learned counsel for the applicant has also submitted that if the applicant is released on bail, she will not misuse the liberty of bail and she will also fully cooperate with the trial Court in getting the trial concluded expeditiously. 7. Learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail, but he could not dispute the fact that Sundara Devi, P.W.-2, mother of the deceased has not supported the prosecution case and has been declared hostile. 8.
Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, after hearing learned counsel for the parties and looking into the statement of P.W.-2, who is mother of the deceased, has not supported the prosecution case and the applicant is a lady, I am of the opinion that applicant is entitled to be released on bail. 9.
