The Court dismissed two bail applications filed by accused persons. Despite counsel's claims of political motivation, the Judge declined to consider this and denied anticipatory bail, citing a need for investigation and the presence of grievous injuries.
Bail applications were dismissed; anticipatory bail was not granted to the petitioners.
