The state has contested the High Court's decision to grant conditional bail to Halimath Lamha, a key suspect in the murder case of Filipino nurse Mary Grace, employed at IGMH.
Lamha secured bail for three months from the trial court on Thursday, subject to the condition that she remains within her residence between 10 pm and 6 am and seeks court permission for any departure from the capital. Despite Lamha being in judicial custody, the state rejected her plea, citing concerns about the continued risk to community safety.
