The Delhi High Court has granted a regular bail to an accused in a case of abduction and murder of a man for property in Greater Kailash in November 2019. The accused has been in custody since December 2019. Justice Anish Dayal granted bail to accused Hitesh Pratap Singh Chauhan considering his conduct in custody, his long incarceration and that the case is at the stage of evidence and all important witnesses have been examined.
"In light of the above, and that the trial in the matter is likely to take some time, and it would not be prudent to keep the petitioner behind bars for an indefinite period, this Court finds it to be a fit case for grant of bail to the petitioner," Justice Dayal said in the order dated October 14. The accused petitioner has filed the plea for regular bail in the matter.
