New Delhi, July 29
A Delhi court on Thursday granted anticipatory bail to gangster-turned-activist Lakha Sidhana in a case related to his alleged involvement in the violence that ensued at the Red Fort here on Republic Day, saying no case is made out against him.
Additional Sessions Judge Kamini Lau said there was no prima facie material to show that Sidhana was present inside the Red Fort and “if that be so, even no case is made out against him.”
“The investigating officer is unable to respond why the custodial interrogation of the accused is further required in the investigation,” the judge said. The court also observed that the investigating officer is not sure as to whether the presence of the accused outside the Red Fort is a very grave offence and non-bailable. — PTI
