Mr. Saini further points-out that the learned Sessions Court has\n               dismissed her anticipatory bail application, after initially\n               granting her interim protection, on the incorrect appreciation\n               that the applicant did not co-operate in the investigation and has\n               also moved her residence without informing the Investigating\n               Officer, which, counsel contends, is belied by the submissions\n               of the Investigating Officer himself.4.

Mr. Farooqui also submits\n               that the applicant is the only person who has been named by the\n               deceased in her suicide note.7.      Let status report be filed before the next date, with advance\n               copy to the opposing counsel.8.
