Patna High Court CR. MISC.

The accused persons had also demanded a ransom of Rs. 10 lacs. The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that as far as petitioner no. 2 is concerned, there is no allegation of any sort of assault by her qua the informant and his wife and she has no complicity in the matter and she is also having a clean antecedent.
Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, I deem it fit and appropriate to admit the petitioner no. 2 to the privilege of anticipatory bail.
