The instant bail application has been moved on behalf of the applicant with a prayer to enlarge her on bail in Case Crime No.0642 of 2017, under Sections 406, 420 IPC, Police Station Farah, District Mathura, during pendency of the trial.

¶8

It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the present case. As per allegation an amount of Rs.2,42,000/- was deposited with the alleged company to which the applicant's husband late JK Rana was the director who died on 16.04.2021 during Covid-19 pandemic. She was neither director nor agent nor any authorized signatory in the alleged company; she was implicated because of her being wife of the director of the alleged company who died on 16.04.2021. It is further contended that no active participation, direct or indirect, on the part of the applicant has been established. It is also contended that after the alleged incident several cases have been registered against the applicant for which the applicant has no concern. There is no likelihood of her abscondence or tampering with the evidence. The applicant is languishing in jail since 15.03.2023. In case the applicant is released on bail, she will not misuse the said liberty.

¶9

The prayer for bail has been vehemently opposed by learned AGA. However, he could not dispute the aforesaid factual aspects raised by the counsel for the applicant.

¶10

Considering the facts, circumstances and the submissions made but without commenting on the merits of the case, this Court is of opinion that the applicant has made out a fit case for
