PANCHKULA: In a major relief to
Dera Sacha Sauda chief
Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Insan, the
Panchkula special CBI court on Friday granted regular bail to him in castration case.
Earlier his bail application was rejected by special judicial magistrate, CBI, on August 23. Thereafter Dera chief had challenged order and had moved an application before special CBI judge
Jagdeep Singh, who accepted his bail plea on Friday.
However, Dera chief will not come out of jail as he was awarded 20 years imprisonment for raping two sadhvis in September last year by CBI court.
Recently, the Panchkula CBI court had framed charges under sections 326 (voluntarily causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapons or means), 417 (cheating) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the IPC against Gurmeet, who was charged as prime accused by the CBI in its chargesheet. Besides, charges under sections 326 and 120 B (criminal conspiracy) of the IPC were also framed against the dera chief and two others — Dr M P Singh alias Mahender Insan and Dr Pankaj Garg.
