I have heard learned senior counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Assistant Advocate General, Haryana appearing for the respondentState and have gone through the record. From the record, I find that the offences are triable by Judicial Magistrate Ist Class. The petitioner is in custody since 9.9.2015. The petitioner is not required for any interrogation and investigation purposes as she is in judicial custody. The trial of the case will take long time. No useful purpose will be served by keeping the petitioner in custody till the final disposal of the case.

Therefore, keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the present case; without discussing the facts in minute detail and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, this criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed and the petitioner is ordered to be released on bail subject to her furnishing personal bond in the sum of `50,000/- with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court/Duty Magistrate.
