The Kerala High Court on Thursday adjourned to February 28 the hearing on the bail petition filed by P. Krishnadas, chairman and managing trustee of the Nehru College of Educational and Charitable Trust, and the first accused in a case registered in connection with the death of Jishnu Pranoy, a student at the group’s engineering college at Pambady.
The court had extended the interim bail granted to him with a new condition that Krishnadas should not enter any of the institutions under the group. The government in a petition had sought the cancellation of the bail.
The court had asked whether offence under Section 306 (abetment of suicide) of the IPC would be attracted in the case when the allegation against him was only the commission of irregularities in the management of the college.
