No, 221/84, dated 14-6-1984. 2. The prosecution case is that tte petitioner abetted Nazir Ahmad co-accused who launched murderous assault on Shaukat Ali, the father of the complainant and fired shots at him. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was not present at the time of occurrence and as such her case is distinguishable.

After hearing the learned counsel for the parties I find that the petitioner was not present at the time of occurrence and that she being a woman, her case falls within the second proviso to section 497, Cr.P.C. To my mind, it is a fit case for grant of bail.
