Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that only role attributed to the petitioner is that she has facilitated her brother, who had taken the prosecutrix in a flat and committed rape upon her. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and with their able assistance gone through the material available on record.

CRM-M-45212-2016 -2The petitioner was arrested on 27.10.2016. Since then, she is in judicial custody and no useful purpose would be served to further detain her in jail. The final conclusion of trial will take a long time. In view of above facts, the present petition is allowed. The petitioner is ordered to be released on regular bail on her furnishing adequate bail bonds and surety bonds to the satisfaction of learned trial Judge/Duty Magistrate, Hisar.

Needless to mention that, nothing observed here-in-above, would reflect, on merits in the trial of the main case, in any manner.
