STC NEWS MONITORING DESK
New Delhi,February 3 (STC):The NIA on Monday opposed in the Delhi High Court a plea by jailed Jammu and Kashmir MP Rashid Engineer for interim bail in a terror-funding case to attend Parliament, reports PTI.
In its response to Engineer’s plea before Justice Vikas Mahajn, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) said it was a classic case of misuse of the interim bail provision ought to be used sparingly when intolerable grief and suffering was displayed by the accused concerned.
Rashid’s interim bail plea is scheduled for February 4.
He has sought interim bail to attend the budget session of Parliament, which began on January 31, and concludes on April 4. (STC)
