The counsel appearing for Pradeep Sharma had sought interim bail in the Antilia bomb scare case on humanitarian grounds and said the wife of the petitioner has developed serious complications after a surgery.
The Supreme Court on Monday granted three weeks interim bail to former police officer Pradeep Sharma, arrested in connection with the Antilia bomb scare case and the killing of businessman Mansukh Hiran, to file a fresh application seeking interim bail.
A vacation bench of Justices Aniruddha Bose and Rajesh Bindal granted the relief to Sharma after noting that his wife has to undergo surgery.
The top court said Sharma would be released on interim bail subject to conditions imposed by the trial court.
“List on June 26, 2023. On that day petitioner shall furnish a medical report indicating therein the status of treatment of wife of the petitioner,” the bench said.
Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati opposed the grant of bail.
Earlier, Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju had argued that Sharma was seeking interim bail without filing an interlocutory application (application in appeal already instituted).
The counsel appearing for Sharma had sought interim bail on humanitarian grounds and said the wife of the petitioner has developed serious complications after a surgery.
The All-India level NEET examination was started a few years ago to counter complaints of corruption during the joint entrance examinations held at the State level.
