It is also submitted that co-accused Sahid Ansari had concocted a false story of love affair with this petitioner and implicated her. It is also submitted that co-accused Sahid Ansari has been granted bail by co-ordinate bench of this Court vide order dated 10.12.2025 passed in B.A. No. 10688 of 2025.
