In a tough message against terror, the Supreme Court on Monday said terrorists involved in killing innocent people better forget their own families.
A Bench led by Chief Justice of India J.S. Khehar made the oral observation while rejecting the plea for bail made by a man convicted in the 1996 Lajpat Nagar blast case.
Mohammed Naushad, the man in question, wanted bail to attend his daughter’s wedding fixed on February 28. “If someone is involved in heinous offence of indiscriminate killing of innocents, then it’s better he forgets his family ties. No parole or interim bail should be granted to them to attend any family exigencies,” the Bench said.
