Counsel for the applicant submits that the alleged amount was transferred in the account of co-accused Dr. Sompal. The alleged SIM card from which call was made to the informant was not issued in the name of applicant. The applicant being the wife of co-accused Dr. Sompal has been falsely implicated in the present case. At this stage, there is no credible evidence to link the applicant with the offence.
