DATED : 15th JUNE 2011. P.C. :- The Applicant and her Advocate are absent. 2. I find that the Anticipatory Bail Application has been pending since quite some time. It is not being prosecuted diligently. It was dismissed for want of prosecution on 20th January 2011. Thereafter, it was again restored. The matter appeared on board on 13th June 2011, but at that time also only an adjournment was sought by the learned Advocate for the Applicant. There has been no interim protection, in favour of the Applicant, during the pendency of this application. 2 APPLN. 5592.10.sxw 3. I have gone through the F.I.R., copy of which is annexed to the Application. Since the Advocate for the Applicant is absent, I have gone through the contents of the Application. There exists a prima-facie case about the serious allegations, against the Applicant. It also appears that the Applicant has not been available to the Investigating Agency, for investigation/interrogation. 4. Under these circumstances, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the Applicant. 5. The Application is rejected. Later on, Mentioned at 5.00 p.m. At this stage, learned Advocate Mr. N.V. Kalantri i/b. M/s. A.A. Siddiquie & Associates, appears on behalf of the Applicant. (A.M. THIPSAY,J.)
