Bombay High Court Grants Interim Bail to Woman in Drug Case for Infant Care
The Bombay High Court granted eight months' interim bail to a woman accused under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act to care for her premature infant daughter, who has ongoing respiratory issues requiring frequent medical attention. The woman was arrested last year with six kilograms of cocaine and had been temporarily released for childbirth. The court emphasized the infant's need for home and hospital care over incarceration, while noting the serious charges against the woman remain under consideration.
