A Ballia lower court on Tuesday rejected the bail pleas of three journalists arrested for their alleged involvement in a paper leak case, Indian Express reported today.
Mithilesh Kumar Singh, the lawyer representing the three journalists, told the newspaper that bail pleas would be filed today at a sessions court. "Some of the sections invoked against my clients were bailable, while others are non-bailable," he said. "The lower court rarely gives bail in such cases."
