4 Accused In Malegaon Blasts Case Get Bail

The Bombay High Court on Friday granted bail to four people accused in the 2006 Malegaon blast case, PTI reported. A division bench of Justices IA Mahanty and AM Badar gave bail to Manohar Nawaria, Rajendra Chaudhary, Dhan Singh and Lokesh Sharma.

“The petitions are allowed,” said the judges. “The applicants shall be released on cash bail of Rs 50,000. They shall attend the special court on each day during the trial and shall not tamper with evidence or contact witnesses.”

The four, who are in jail since their arrest in 2013, had approached the High Court in 2016 after a special court rejected their bail pleas that June.
