In Brief
A married woman with two young children (ages five months and five years) appealed against the High Court's rejection of her anticipatory bail application in a fraud case involving charges under Sections 409, 420, and 120B IPC. The Supreme Court granted the appeal, holding that given the appellant's status as a mother to an infant and a young child with no other female family member available for their care, it was just and proper to grant anticipatory bail. The Court released her on bail with conditions including personal bond and availability for police interrogation."
