This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. The application for anticipatory bail is canvassed on the ground that the applicant had estranged relationship with her brother who is a major. The victim girl is stated to have eloped with her brother. The applicant had no role to play whatsoever in the incident.
2. Counsel for the de facto complainant submits that the victim girl is about 13 years old. The applicant in collusion and in connivance with her brother has kidnapped the victim girl. The victim who went to a market on a particular date did not return home thereafter.
3. Counsel for the State submits that they have very strong suspicion that the victim girl may have been kidnapped for trafficking.

4. In the light of the above, this Court is not inclined to entertain the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.
5. Accordingly, CRM (A) 743 of 2026 shall stand dismissed.
