Pub assault: Nalapad to remain in jail as HC rejects bail petition
March 15, 2018
Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court on Wednesday rejected the bail petition of Congress MLA NA Haris’s son Mohammad Nalapad, who has been in judicial custody for allegedly assaulting Vidvat L at Farzi Cafe in UB City on Feb 17. “The bail petition has been dismissed,” said Justice S Harish Kumar in the order.
Nalapad, 24, along with six other accused in the assault case, was sent to the central jail in the city outskirts, after a city court sent them to 14-day judicial custody for investigation. A sessions court had earlier rejected Nalapad’s bail plea on March 2. “The judge felt that the attack on the youth was ghastly and hence dismissed the bail petition after going through the evidences,” special public prosecutor MS Shyam Sundar told media here.
Meanwhile, Nalapad’s counsel CV Nagesh told media that he would appeal against the single order before a division bench of the High Court or the Supreme Court. Nalapad and the six accused were arrested on February 19 after they surrendered at the Cubbon Park police station. Haris, a two-time lawmaker from the Shantinagar assembly segment, had earlier tendered an apology in the state legislative assembly for the violent conduct of his son.
