Jaipur: Lawyers affiliated to the Rajasthan High Court Bar Association here have declared that they will not represent any of the suspects in the Jaipur serial blasts case.

"About 3,500 bar lawyers are united and have pledged that they would stay away from cases related to such heinous crime," Association President Madhav Mitra told PTI today.

The Association took the decision after Shahbaz Hussain, one of the alleged masterminds of May 13 serial blasts that killed 68 people, was arrested in Lucknow on August 26 and produced in a local court here yesterday.

The District Bar Association and the Jaipur Bar Association have also called up meetings to discuss the issue, sources said.
