Heard learned Advocates for both the parties. 2. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of the minor victims show petitioner and others had trafficked them for sexual exploitation. In view of the nature of offence involving child trafficking for sexual exploitation and the incriminating materials collected against the petitioner, we are of the opinion this is not a fit case to grant anticipatory bail to her. 3. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner stands rejected. (Uday Kumar, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
