Sessions Judge V. R. Garg that Daljeet Singh Bittu’s name does appear in the chargesheet filed by the police thus he should be discharged.
The prosecution lawyer admitted the fact, however he claimed that the Government may frame a charge of criminal conspiracy against Daljeet Singh Bittu, therefore he should not be discharged. But when he was asked to furnish any evidence proving the case of conspiracy, prima facie, against Daljeet Singh Bittu, the he failed to respond. Later the hearing was adjourned till 9 December.
Bhai Daljeet Singh Bittu, during short interaction with selected media persons, said that the government is opposing his bail application in Punjab and Haryana High Court by making a reference to ‘number of cases’ pending against him.
