Chandigarh, June 4

A local court here has denied bail to Vijay Singh Rawat, who was arrested for allegedly attacking and snatching a gold chain from a property dealer in Sector 44-D, Chandigarh.

The police had registered a case on the complaint of the property dealer, who alleged that two persons entered his office on October 31, 2020. They attacked him and snatched his gold chain.

When he objected, one of the suspects took out a knife from his pocket and started attacking him. The duo later fled from the spot.

After registering a case against the suspects under Sections 379, 452, 411 and 34 of the IPC at Sector 34 police station, the police arrested the duo.

The counsel for Vijay Singh argued before the court that he was falsely implicated in the case.

Public prosecutor JP Singh opposed the bail, alleging that there are serious allegations against the applicant. After hearing the arguments, the court dismissed the bail application of the accused.
