and the son of the informant received injuries and died, but the petitioner did not assault him. The allegation of giving repeated knife blow against the petitioner is false and concocted. The post mortem report shows only one injury. This falsifies the allegation that the petitioner was involved in giving repeated knife blow to the deceased. The petitioner has been working as Aganwari Sewika and she has been dragged in this case in order to get her removed from the job. Further allegation against the petitioner is that of giving knife blow to the wife of the informant, but the injury report shows superficial nature of injuries of simple nature. The learned counsel further submits that co-accused husband has surrendered before the learned trial court and has been taken in custody. The learned counsel also submits that the petitioner, who is a lady, is having clean antecedent.

¶17

Learned APP as well as learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant vehemently oppose the submission made on behalf of the petitioner. The learned counsel for the informant submits that there is specific allegation against the petitioner and co-accused.

¶18

Having regard to the facts and circumstances and submissions made on behalf of the parties and considering the fact that the petitioner is a lady and further considering the
