petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence. She has falsely been implicated in this case only because she is wife of the co-accused who took money from the informant. The nature of this case is civil. She has not taken any amount from the informant and she has nothing to do with the business of her husband. Moreover, the petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since 26.03.2021.
