Being Elderly Or Infirm Doesn't Automatically Entitle A Woman Directly Involved In Offence To Anticipatory Bail: Delhi High Court

The Delhi High Court dismissed a woman's anticipatory bail plea, emphasizing the gravity of the charges against her. The case pertained to allegations of cheating and criminal breach of trust. The court noted that although anticipatory bail is a protective mechanism, it should not be granted in cases where the accused's actions are egregious and involve significant public harm. The court concluded that custodial interrogation was necessary for proper investigation, denying the plea.
