The present application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure has been preferred by the petitioner in connection with Manikchak P. S. Case No. 191 of 2020 dated 05-07-2020 under Sections 498(A)/304B/302/34 of the Indian Penal Code (G. R. Case No. 2804 of 2020). Initially the case was initiated against several persons but ultimately the charge-sheet has been filed

against the petitioner and her son who being the husband of the victim lady. The victim lady died of the strangulation and the post mortem report reveals multiple injuries in her person.

Having regard to the prima facie materials available against the petitioner towards the complicity of the offence for which the case has been lodged, we are of the opinion that this is not a fit case where the petitioner should be enlarged on bail and as such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected, With the aforesaid observations, the application for bail being CRM 937 of 2021 is, accordingly, disposed of.
