The Punjab and Haryana High Court on August 10 granted bail to former Minister and senior Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader Bikram Singh Majithia in a case related to allowing illicit drugs smuggling and harbouring offenders involved in the drugs trade.
Mr. Majithia’s counsel Arshdeep Singh Kler said, his client had been granted bail by the High Court in the matter. The Division Bench of justices M.S. Ramachandra Rao and Sureshwar Thakur had reserved the judgment, which was pronounced today, he added.
Mr. Majitia had surrendered before the police earlier this year after the Assembly election were over in the State. He had been lodged in a Patiala jail since then.
