Judge Giribala Seeks Bail in Twisha Sharma Death Case
A woman named Twisha Sharma was found dead, and a judge named Giribala is being investigated for her death.
Giribala, who used to be a judge, was put in jail with her son on June 2.
The court said they had a lot of evidence that might show Giribala was involved.
Because she is a former judge, the court worried she could trick witnesses or stop the investigation if she were released.
So, Giribala asked the higher court for bail after the lower court said no.
The higher court will decide if she can stay free while the case continues.
Retired judge Giribala filed a bail application in the High Court after the district court rejected her plea on July 25.
She was remanded with her son Smarth Singh on June 2.
District court cited substantial evidence (CDRs, WhatsApp chats, witness statements) indicating her involvement.
Court concerned she could influence witnesses or interfere with investigation due to her position.
Advocate Ankur Pandey noted the bail application was filed following district court rejection.
