Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira granted bail in criminal intimidation case

30 Oct 2023  |  TheDailyGuardian  |  English  |  Political Vendetta

A local court granted bail to Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira in a criminal intimidation case, requiring a bail bond of Rs One lakh. The charges were based on a complaint by Ranjit Kaur, related to threats against her family. Khaira, previously arrested in connection with a 2015 drug case, faced allegations of political vendetta. The Punjab and Haryana High Court's decision in the 2015 NDPS case influenced the bail. The Supreme Court had earlier quashed the summons against Khaira in the 2015 case.
