The Bombay High Court in its order dated November 28, 2022 has granted bail to a woman who spent around three years in jail on charges of throwing her newborn baby from the top of the building.

The bench noted that this was “an unfortunate case.”
Granting bail, the Bombay High Court stated that the woman has been in custody for over 2 years and 11 months and the charge sheet already stands filed. The bench added,
No purpose will be served by prolonging the custody of the applicant – a woman any further. The possibility of the trial commencing any time soon in the near future is remote.
