SRINAGAR, July 30: 4th Additional Sessions Judge Srinagar Kamlesh Pandita has rejected the bail application of Dawood Ahmad Azad, son of Humayoun Azad of Srinagar, who was booked for cheating Haj pilgrims.
After hearing both the sides, court observed, “the allegations against the accused person are that he being the Manager of the Indo Sahab Travel Services enticed and allured innocent aspirants for Haj pilgrimage of their hard earned money and also played with their religious feelings, along with other co-accused persons”.
“In this case accused person has been arrested on 08.07.2017 along with other co-accused persons and as per record the detention continues till date. Police agency after considering public outcry constituted a Special Investigation Team for going to the root of the scam and fraud where other key wrong doers are outsiders”, the court said, adding “as per the prosecution and the shadow C/D file, the investigation is being carried vigorously and the investigating team is already outside the State for laying hands on the fraudsters”.
With these observations, court rejected the bail application.
