K.T.THOMAS, S.N.PHUKAN

body2001
( 1 ) MR J. P. Dhanda, Advocate enters appearance for the respondent State. ( 2 ) LEAVE granted. ( 3 ) ON the fact situation, particularly since the appellant is a lady, and in view of the relatively less serious offence involved, we are inclined to benefit the appellant with an order under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal procedure. We, therefore, direct that the appellant, if arrested, shall be released on bail on her executing a bond in a sum of Rs 10,000 to the satisfaction of the arresting officer. It is open to the investigating officer to question her under Section 161 of the Code. ( 4 ) WITH these observations the appeals are disposed of.
