1. Madras HC dismisses bail plea of jailed Minister Senthilbalaji
The Madras High Court dismissed a bail petition filed by jailed Minister V. Senthilbalaji, citing health reasons.
Justice G. Jayachandran refused to enlarge the Minister on bail, even on medical grounds, after accepting the contention of the prosecution that he was an influential person and therefore, there was every possibility of him attempting to tamper with the evidence and influence the witnesses if he was let out on bail.
