Calcutta, Aug 24.TT :
A division bench of Calcutta High Court comprising Justice A.K. Roy and
Justice Taufique Uddin today rejected the bail petition of Sudesh Rai
Maji who was arrested in connection with ABGL chief Madan Tamang’s
murder.
The court had rejected Maji’s bail plea in November last year.
Maji’s lawyer
claimed that his client had been languishing in jail for the past 250
days. “The investigation into the murder has already been concluded. So
there is no necessity to keep Maji behind the bars any more. If granted
bail, he will help the CBI in investigation,” said the lawyer.
Opposing the bail
plea, the government lawyer told the court that Nicole Tamang, the main
accused in the Madan Tamang murder case, was still at large. “At this
point, it would not be wise to grant bail to Maji,” he said.
The lawyer also claimed that Maji was present, along with Nicole, at the spot when Madan Tamang was murdered.
