the son-in-law of the complainant had been spared his life by merely being hit with a vehicle. However, if the amount was not given, dire consequences would follow. Because of the gravity of the offence, Section 387 IPC has been added subsequently on 09.02.2024. It is submitted that the accused had also extended the threat that he was the associate of one Naveen Bali of the Neeraj Bawania Gang which is involved in all kinds of serious crimes. With this kind of threats, it would not be in the interest of justice if the bail is granted to the accused.
7. Submissions heard.
