2002 Sabarmati Express Burning Case: Gujarat High Court Rejects Temporary Bail Of Convict For Father's Treatment

Live Law  

The Gujarat High Court on Thursday rejected the temporary bail plea moved by a man–convicted in the 2002 Sabarmati Express train burning case, sought for carrying out the medical treatment of his 95-year-old father. Having considered the fact that there are other family members who can look after the father of the applicant and since the applicant has recently been granted temporary bail, no case is made out and hence the present application stands rejected accordingly". During the hearing the applicant's father said that temporary bail was being sought for carrying out medical treatment of father of the applicant, who is aged about 95 years, is diagnosed with diastolic dysfunction and is suffering from kidney related illness. Meanwhile the Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the State opposed the bail plea, contending that there are other family members of the man who could look after his father.
