Considering the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 21.09.2021, is a person with clean antecedent, chargesheet has been submitted and is a woman and the informant is not an eyewitness to the occurrence, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Court below where the case is pending in connection with Mahindwara P.S. Case No. 141 of 2021.
