It has been argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submits that the present applicant wants to adopt the younger son of the complainant with her consent, but some dispute has arose between the parties and thereby a false case was registered against the present applicant, the applicant was taking the child for a ride so that she can spend some time and mix up with him. He further submits that the other co-accused person namely Sahil Ahmad has been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 07.01.2025 in MCRC No. 20/2025. The present applicant is a young girl and she is languishing in jail since 19.09.2024 and the charge-sheet has been filed before the competent Court, the conclusion of the trial is likely to take some time hence, he prays for grant of bail. 4. On the other hand, the learned counsel for the State opposes the bail application and submits that the examination of the case reveals that the present applicant hatched a conspiracy to kidnap and murder an 18-day-old baby. The investigation also reveals that the newborn was recovered from the possession of the present applicant, who had kept the baby in a bag in an insecure manner, which could have resulted in the loss of the newborn's life. This kind of kidnapping also reveals the criminal mindset of the accused. Hence, the bail application of the applicant is liable to be rejected. 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record. 3 6. Considering the facts & circumstances of the case, nature & gravity of the offence, material available in the case dairy and the fact that the though the co-accused person namely Sahil Ahmad has been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 07.01.2025 in MCRC No. 20/2025, on the ground that he is driver of the auto rickshaw and he was hired by the present applicant, but the present applicant hatched a conspiracy to kidnap and murder an 18-day-old baby and investigation also reveals that the newborn was recovered from the possession of the present applicant, who had kept the baby in a bag in an insecure manner, which could have resulted in the loss of the newborn's life, as such, this Court is of the opinion that it is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on regular bail, accordingly, the bail application of applicant – Miss Akansha @ Anshu Sharma, involved in Crime No. 43/2024, registered at Police Station Bacheli District - Dantewada (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 137(2), 140(1) & 3(5) of the Bhartiya Nyay Sanhita, 2023, is rejected. 7.
