Telangana: Hyderabad HC dismisses bail plea of YSRC MP Mithun
This is the second time the MP is approaching the HC seeking anticipatory bail.
Hyderabad: Justice M.S.K. Jaiswal of the Hyderabad HC has dismissed the anticipatory bail plea of YSRC MP Mithun Reddy on Tuesday in connection with the assault on an Air India officer at the Tirupati airport.
This is the second time the MP is approaching the HC seeking anticipatory bail. When he moved his bail plea in November 2015, the court dismissed it.
The police booked a case against the MP for allegedly assaulting the airport officer when he was denied a boarding pass to board a Delhi-bound flight as he came late.
Posani Venkateswarlu, AP public prosecutor on Tuesday, said the High Court had earlier directed the police to issue a notice to the MP and seek his reply.
He said accordingly, the police issued him a notice under Section 41-A of CrPC.and sought his presence for questioning him and the MP while seeking time for his appearance told the police that he would appear before them after December 31.
Despite appearing before the police, the MP has to file this plea for the second time before the court, he added. The judge made it clear that there was no valid ground in the plea which warrants interference of the court and dismissed the plea.
