Learned Counsel for the State produces the Case Diary. We have seen the statements of witnesses recorded under Section 161 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The statements are general and omnibus in nature. Charge-sheet has already been filed.

On an overall consideration of the facts and circumstances of the case and the material in the Case Diary, we are of the view that immediate custodial interrogation of the petitioner may not be necessary so long as she is willing to cooperate with further investigation, if any.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and shall abide by the conditions laid down in Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

The application being C.R.M.
