Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court on Wednesday directed the trial court hearing the Chinnaswamy 2010 blasts case to frame charges within three months. The court passed the directions after noting that the CCB, which investigated the case, has already filed chargesheet before the court.
The court was hearing the petition filed by one of the accused, Gazi Mohammad, who is seeking bail. The court rejected his bail plea, citing that the charges against the accused are grave in nature and that the trial is in its initial stages.
The blasts occurred at Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 17, 2010, just hours before an IPL cricket match was to start between Royal Challengers and Mumbai Indians.
