Suman De Ms. Suruchi Saha ... For the State The petitioner is in custody for more than 4 years and prays for bail.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the vital witnesses have not implicated the petitioner. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer. The bail prayer of the petitioner was turned down by this Court as recently as on 21st February, 2025. After such rejection, three more witnesses have been examined. Out of 34 witnesses 23 witnesses have been examined. On merits, the petitioner does not deserve a favourable order at this stage. There is sufficient material implicating her in the alleged crime. Offence, if proved, shall attract mandatory life imprisonment.

Prayer for bail is rejected at this stage.

Considering the period of incarceration of the petitioner, learned trial Court is directed to take the

proceeding to its logical conclusion as expeditiously as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties, in accordance with law. The application for bail is disposed of.

Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
