2.

As per the bare averments appearing in the FIR, the alleged incident took place on 01.10.2024, when the petitioner herein i.e. accused was feeding some stray dogs.

3.

Charge-sheet has already been filed.

Petitioner is present in Court and assures and undertakes that she would appear in the abovesaid connected petition for making requisite statement before the Court.
