Ropar: A court in Ropar today (Dec 1, 2003) rejected the interim bail plea of former Punjab Chief
Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Sukhbir Singh, his son and Rajya Sabha member, and sent them to
judicial custody till December 13 in connection with a disproportionate assets case.
Special judge S K Goyal adjourned the plea for regular bail of the duo to December 3 in the case, which
involves four others too.
Badal's wife Surender Kaur, who is also one of the six accused, did not appear in the court due to illness.
The former Chief Minister's non-resident Indian (NRI) relative Narottam Singh Dhillon was released on
bail earlier.
The other two accused – Badal family's manager Harbans Lal and an associate Jagnandan Singh – are
at present in judicial custody.
The applications of Harbans Lal and Jagnandan Singh for regular bail would also be taken up by the
court on December 3.
