Jharkhand court modifies ‘donate Quran’ order

Ranchi: A court here on Wednesday modified its order asking a college girl, arrested for an offensive Facebook post, to donate copies of the Quran as a pre-condition for bail. Changing its order, the court allowed her regular bail by furnishing bail bond of Rs 7,000 and two sureties of like amount each. Judicial Magistrate Manish Kumar Singh, modifying his Tuesday’s order, said the court has granted a petition filed by the investigating officer cum-officer-in- charge  praying for doing away with the condition of donating copies of the Quran because of the difficulties in its implementation.
