NEW DELHI, Feb 7: The Delhi High Court on Friday reserved its order on a plea seeking custody parole to attend the ongoing Parliament session by jailed MP Abdul Rashid Sheikh alias Engineer Rashid, accused of funding separatists and terror groups in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Judgement reserved,” said Justice Vikas Mahajan after hearing the counsel appearing for the Lok Sabha MP from Baramulla (North Kashmir) and the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
Senior advocate Sidharth Luthra and advocate Akshai Malik, representing the NIA, argued against the granting of custody parole, and said Rashid did not have a vested right to attend Parliament and hadn’t demonstrated a specific purpose for his request. (AGENCIES)
