The High Court asked the public prosecutor whether he opposed the bail or not. On this, the public prosecutor said that the investigating officer of the case is present . On this, the High Court said that the lawyer should ask his senior whether to oppose the bail or not, the investgating officer will not tell. The big question is why is the government confused on this issue?
In the last hearing on the bail plea of Dr. Vijay Singla, the High Court had given time to the public prosecutor. Even then, the public prosecutor was not clear on whether he opposed the bail or not. The High Court had asked its senior i.e. the government to inquire about it. However, today he took the investigating officer of the case to the High Court. After the rebuke of the High Court, the public prosecutor has sought more time.
Hence, Singla’s case had been adjourned till July 8.
