Ludhiana, January 12 Sessions Judge G K Rai today rejected the bail plea of Gurdial Kaur Khangura, former trustee of Ludhiana Improvement Trust (LIT), in the multi-crore City Centre case. However, the judge granted bail to Sanjeev Gupta, Sourav Gupta and SAH Naqvi, the officials of Today Homes company, which had been allotted the work of construction of the City Centre.

Yesterday, after hearing the arguments on the bail application, the Sessions Judge had reserved the order for today. Khangura’s defence counsel Ashok Bhakri claimed that his client was innocent, and had been falsely implicated by Vigilance Bureau (VB) due to political vendetta.

The defence counsel also denied the allegations leveled against Gurdial Kaur by Vigilance Bureau. He claimed that her name did not figure in the FIR regarding the case. The defence counsel also claimed that the former trustee had already joined the investigation, as and when called by VB, and that VB had not arrested her.

On the other hand, District Attorney Mitter Sain Goyal stressed that keeping in view the sensitivity of the case, the accused should not be bailed out. He claimed that if this was done, there was a possibility that she could hamper the record.
