P.C. P.C. 1. This is an application for grant of bail. The applicant is shown as an accused in C.R.No.28/2006 registered by DCB,. CID, Unit VIII, Andheri for alleged offences under Section 489 (b),(c),(d) and 120B read with 34 of the I.P.C. It appears that the present applicant is accused No.2 in the case. That counterfeit notes worth Rs.2,50,000/- were found from the accused No.1. Similarly, counterfeit notes of the value of Rs.1,00,000/- were found from the accused No.3 and 4 respectively. The total value of the counterfeit notes is Rs.14,50,000/-. As far as present applicant is concerned, admittedly, no counterfeit money was found in her possession. The evidence shows that one month before the incident she was staying alongwith co- accused in hotel. The statement of the Manager of the :2: hotel was recorded to that effect. It is however, found that she visits in Dubai as her husband is staying at Dubai. There is also bank transaction made by the applicant. However, that amount does not relate to counterfeit money. The passport of the applicant is already seized by the police. Taking into consideration the fact that the applicant is a lady and no counterfeit notes were found with the applicant. I find that this is a fit case for grant of bail. It is therefore, directed that pending her trial in pursuance of C.R.No.28/2006 registered by DCB, CID, Unit VIII,Andheri, the applicant may be released on bail in the sum of Rs.20,000/- with one surety in the like amount subject to the condition that her passport should be retained by the I.O. till the disposal of the trial and she should report to the Investigating Officer, DCB, CID,.
