Chandigarh, Jan 25 (Inditop.com) The Punjab and Haryana High Court Monday granted interim bail to former Haryana police chief S.P.S. Rahtore after two fresh first information reports (FIRs) were filed against him by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the molestation of Ruchika Girhotra.
Rathore was also given relief in the third case registered against him for allegedly abetting Ruchika’s suicide, as the court directed CBI to give him a four-day notice before arresting him.
The anticipatory bail plea of Rathore will be heard by the court when the CBI files its final report in the matter after investigations. Till then the interim relief will continue.
Rathore had filed a plea seeking anticipatory bail in all three fresh FIRs filed against him, first by the Haryana police and later by the CBI, and had sought quashing of these FIRs.
