Court Expresses Displeasure Against Repetitive Bail Plea in Northeast Delhi Riots Case
News 18A Delhi court Wednesday expressed displeasure against repetitive filing of bail applications merely on account of change of counsel in a case related to north east Delhi riots in February, saying it will be difficult to function if it starts hearing all such pleas. The court was hearing an application filed by Mohd Naim, through his lawyer, seeking bail on the ground that his earlier counsel had not argued all the points at the time of hearing of the earlier bail plea in the case related to communal violence in New Usmanpur area. Additional Sessions Judge Vinod Yadav said the court does not appreciate the argument of Naim’s counsel that the earlier counsel had not argued the bail application diligently and dismissed the plea. In case this court starts taking up the successive bail applications filed merely on account of the fact that change of counsel takes place then it will be very difficult to run this court.
