JAMMU, May 31: Principal Sessions Judge Bhaderwah MK Sharma today rejected the bail applications of Zahid Hussain, son of Abdul Latief and Manzoor Ahmed, son of Abdul Latief, both the residents of Gandoh, who were facing trial in murder and kidnapping case.
After hearing both the sides, Principal Sessions Judge observed, “the accused have been charge-sheeted for the commission of offence punishable under Section 302 RPC, which carries punishment of death or imprisonment for life and fine”.
“They are neither under the age of 16 years nor sick or infirm persons. The trial is still in progress. The evidence adduced by the prosecution cannot be appreciated at this stage because it may prejudice any of the parties to the case but through the evidence on record it cannot be said that there are no reasonable grounds for believing that the accused have not committed the offence of which the accused are charged”, the court said.
With these observations, Court rejected the bail application of both the accused persons.
