The National Investigation Agency (NIA) court here on Tuesday allowed Soofiya Maudany, an accused in the Kalamassery bus burning case of 2005, to travel to Bangalore to visit her husband and People’s Democratic Party leader Abdul Nasir Maudany. The NIA court relaxed her bail conditions for a month.

Maudany, an accused in the Bangalore serial blasts case, was released from prison on Monday after he was permitted to go to a hospital in Bangalore to undergo medical treatment.

Soofiya, who had been granted bail earlier under the condition that she would not leave Ernakulam, moved the court to permit her to see her ailing husband.

When the petition came up for hearing on Tuesday, Judge K.M. Balachandran allowed the relaxation of bail conditions.

She was asked to file an affidavit stating that she will follow the conditions set by the court.

Soofiya is an accused in the case in which a Tamil Nadu State-owned bus was set ablaze at Kalamassery in September 2005.
