Apprehending arrest, the nurse approached the Trial Court for anticipatory bail, but her plea was rejected. Aggrieved, she approached the High Court seeking the same relief, and a Coordinate Bench granted her interim protection, but later rejected her plea.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Thereafter, a charge sheet was filed in the Trial Court on 09-11-2024, but cognizance was taken on 19-05-2025. A non-bailable warrant was issued against the nurse on 10-10-2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The nurse contended that after cognizance was taken, she moved several applications on every date for exemption from her personal appearance as she was pregnant.
