G’bal: National Conference (NC) Vice President and former Chief Minister of erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir State, Omar Abdullah on Thursday said that the court would not listen to the statement of National Investigation Agency (NIA) with regard to the bail plea of jailed incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) from Baramulla, Engineer Abdul Rashid Sheikh.
To query over bail plea of Er Rashid Omar told reporters in Ganderbal that the court has reserved its decision till September 04 and according to his knowledge, the court is not going to listen to the NIA.
“Any news from Delhi cannot remain secret for a long time. So, according to my knowledge, the court is not going to listen to the NIA,” Omar said, adding that let’s wait till September 04 and it will have to be seen whether there will be any conditions from the court while granting bail to Er Rashid.
“The decision of granting bail is not taken by the people by casting votes, it has to be taken by the court itself. The ED was also reluctant to revoke the case against Dr Farooq Abdullah, but the court had given its verdict and it was followed,” Omar added.
