O R D E R
Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned standing counsel for the respondent-State, we are of the view that the petitioner is entitled to be released on bail, considering the fact that she has already spent almost 11 months in custody and also the fact that she is a student. Therefore, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail, subject to such conditions, as may be imposed by the trial Court. 2However, learned standing counsel for the respondent-State shall find out whether the accused in the 9 FIRs lodged by the petitioner are in custody.
Call after three weeks.
