PRIYA TANEJA Vs. STATE (GOVT. OF NCT DELHI)

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Leave granted.

(2.) This appeal is directed against the order dated 05.05.2017 in bail application No. 2486/2014, whereby the High Court of Delhi has rejected her petition for grant of anticipatory bail.

(3.) The petitioner had filed the above bail application before the High Court apprehending her arrest by the police in FIR No. 10/2014, registered at Police Station, EOW (C&R), under Sections 409, 420, 120B of IPC. We have heard the learned counsel for the parties and it is evident from the materials on record that the appellant is a married lady and having two children, born on 27.09.2012 and 27.02017. It is contended that there is no other female member in her family to look after the children in case she is arrested by the police. Considering the age of the younger child, who is about five months old, we are of the view that it is just and proper to grant her anticipatory bail.
