Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the wife of the informant and she has been falsely implicated in this case. She next submits that the petitioner has not served the food along with mixing the poison. On this ground, she submits that the privilege of anticipatory bail may kindly be provided to the petitioner.
