Srinagar Acid Attack: JJB Rejects Bail Plea of Juvenile

The board said that it has rejected the bail after taking into consideration a wide array of things including the gravity of the charge, circumstances in which the offence was alleged to be committed, and its impact on society and the victim’s family.


SRINAGAR — A bail application for a Child in Conflict with Law (CICL) accused in the Srinagar acid attack case was rejected by Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) Srinagar on Wednesday.

The board said that it has rejected the bail after taking into consideration a wide array of things including the gravity of the charge, circumstances in which the offence was alleged to be committed, its impact on society and the victim’s family, etc.

As per officials the JJB Srinagar, after hearing defence counsel and additional public prosecutor Zafar Iqbal Shaheen, said that it would defeat the ends of justice by granting bail to the accused at this time.

The release at this juncture of CICL on bail will not serve the ends of justice. Rather, his placement at Observation Home, Harwan, Srinagar is in his best interest at this juncture as he has shown signs of reformation which shall continue for the time being, JJB added.

On 1 February this year, three persons threw acid on a 24-year-old girl in Safakadal area. Then, on 2 February, police arrested the acid attack accused and his accomplices and one of the three accused was a juvenile.
