Court Grants Bail to Woman in 2013 Kidnapping Case
A woman accused of kidnapping a girl was given bail by a court.
The kidnapping happened in 2013, and the girl was found years later.
The court decided to release the woman because her own 7-year-old daughter has been living in a children's home and needs her mother.
The judge considered that the woman had been in jail for three years without her trial being completed.
The girl who was kidnapped was taken to different places and forced to do chores, and was also physically and mentally harassed.
The woman's husband is still in jail.
