Kathua rape/murder: Juvenile's case to be heard on May 22

May 07, 2018 14:38

A court today posted for May 22 the hearing in the case of the juvenile accused in the rape and murder of an eight-year-old girl in Kathua. The Chief Judicial Magistrate AS Langeh fixed the hearing for May 22.

Earlier on April 25, the juvenile presented himself before the court amid heavy security.

CJM Langeh had then asked the juvenile whether he had received copies of the charge sheet from the crime branch, to which he replied in the affirmative.

The CJM court had dismissed the bail plea of the accused juvenile. The counsel for the accused had moved the court for his bail soon after the crime branch had filed its charge sheet against him and seven others allegedly involved in the rape and murder case. The juvenile accused had sought bail on grounds that he was underage. -- PTI
