Punjab HC denies bail to murder, rape, robbery accused, terming his acts as ‘sheer disregard to life and dignity’

The Punjab and Haryana High Court dismissed the bail plea of an accused in the 2016 double murder, rape and robbery case in Haryana’s Nuh district.

It said that “the accused butchered, injured members of a family and committed rape with females, adjacent to the bodies of their kin lying in a pool of blood,” which was an act of “sheer disregard to life and dignity.”

The incident “barbarous double murder, rape, and robbery” pertains to August 25, 2016, which took place on the occasion of Eid at Dingerhadi village in Nuh. Following the investigation conducted by the Haryana Police, four accused, namely, Sandeep, Amarjeet, Karamjeet, and Rahul Verma were arrested. After that, the Haryana government transferred the investigation to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on November 23, 2016.
