   05.           This    matter    is     taken    up    through   Hybrid

arrangement (video conferencing/physical mode).

Heard learned counsel for the appellant- petitioner and learned counsel for the State.

This is an application for bail. Mrs. Sonita Biswal, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner who is a lady, is in the judicial custody for more than five years, which would be evident from the judgment itself. She further submits that the case is based on

circumstantial evidence and from the evidence of P.W.7, it appears that the petitioner was staying with the deceased and there was physical relationship between the petitioner and the deceased. Out of the said relationship she gave birth to a male child.

Let the learned counsel for the State obtain instruction about the status of the male child.

Put up this matter in the week commencing from 29.04.2025.
