Andhra Pradesh moves SC against Chandrababu Naidu’s bail, says High Court held a ‘mini-trial’

Andhra Pradesh on November 21 moved the Supreme Court against the grant of regular bail to former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu by the State High Court 24 hours ago in what it termed as a “mini-trial” held in the skill development ‘scam’ case.

The State said the High Court judgment, in a bail matter, had “delved deep into facts of the case and rendered findings that were not only factually incorrect but are also likely to prejudice the court below during the trial”.

The petition, represented by advocate Mahfooz A. Nazki, said the Supreme Court had itself deprecated the practice of lower courts going into a detailed elaboration of evidence in bail orders.
