3. The case was registered on the basis of a complaint dated 17.12.2025.
4. The gist of the allegation in the FIR is that the miscreants took away a sum of Rs. 17,40,000/- from the complainant, which she was carrying. The present petitioner was not named in the FIR. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the statement of the present petitioner has already been recorded. Same is not disputed by the prosecution.

In such view of the matter, it is directed that in the event of the arrest of the petitioner in connection with Kulikawn P.S Case No. 137/2025 under Section 308(2)/319(2)/240/61(2)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023, she shall be allowed to go on bail of Rs. 30,000/-, with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the arresting authority and subject to the conditions that she shall render full cooperation to the remaining investigation; she shall appear before the I.O as and when necessary; she shall not hamper or tamper with the evidence.
