Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that petitioner was travelling in general coach and bag containing cannabis was kept by unknown person.
5. From perusal of the typed F.I.R. report, it appears that when the railway police party started checking baggage kept in the coach, petitioner became very nervous and when she was asked about baggage, she stated that bag contains cannabis.
6. In view of the aforesaid facts, I am not inclined to release the petitioner, on bail. Accordingly, her prayer for bail stands rejected.
