S.K. Agarwal, J.—This is a petition u/s 439, Cr.P.C, for grant of bail in case FIR No. 26/2003 under Sections 406, 420, 120B, IPC P.S. Ambedkar Nagar, Delhi.

2.

Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for more than 11 months : and only charge u/s 420, IPC has been framed against the petitioner, on the allegations of having been cheated to the complainant to the tune of Rs. 14.0 lacs; that out of 34 witnesses cited by the prosecution 3 witnesses have been examined and the trial is bound to take quite some time. Learned Counsel for the State opposes the bail, submitting that brother-in-law of the petitioner is still absconding. Therefore, if the petitioner is released, there is likelihood of petitioner''s absconding and tampering with the evidence.

Ambedkar Nagar, Delhi; she shall not leave India, without prior permission of the Trial Court; she shall not tamper with the evidence; and shall surrender her passport, if any.
