Property grab case: Police oppose Satpal Dagar’s bail plea, cite SCO transaction

Chandigarh, July 5

Opposing the bail plea of Satpal Dagar, one of the accused in the alleged property grab case of Sector 37 here, the Chandigarh Police today placed before the court transaction details of an SCO reportedly purchased by the former.

The transaction details form a part of the additional reply filed by the police before the court.

The police claimed that Dagar, along with another accused in the case Khalendra Singh, had purchased shares in the SCO from the money allegedly obtained from the deal of the Sector 37 house.

We got the transaction records from the banks concerned, said the police.

The police also claimed that during the investigation they received a certified copy of the sale deed related to the Sector 22 SCO from the office of the Sub-Registrar, Chandigarh.

The sale deed revealed that the accused (Dagar) had allegedly purchased 20 per cent share in the SCO, the police told the court.

Dagar’s counsel Vishal Garg Narwana, however, argued that the alleged transaction details had no relevance to the bail application. The court has deferred the hearing in the cases for July 9.

Meanwhile, the police have also filed a reply on the bail application of another accused in the case, Sanjeev Mahajan. — TNS
