Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner has submitted that it is evident from the First Information Report that the dispute in respect of management over some Madarsa is the apparent reason behind the occurrence and false implication of these petitioners, who are female members of the family of Md. Zafir Nadaf. He has argued that there is no specific allegation against these petitioners, who are in custody since 20.05.2020.

Learned counsel for the informant, on the other hand, has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail and has argued that the case of the prosecution, as disclosed in the FIR, stands corroborated by the postmortem report and the injury report, which indicate multiple antemortem injuries and the injuries sustained by the prosecution side.

Be that as it may, considering the circumstance that the petitioners are females and there is no specific allegation against them of any overt act, this application is allowed. Let the petitioners, above-named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/-(ten thousand), each
