Srinagar, Sept 07: A court here on Wednesday granted bail to two persons accused of “abetting” of suicide of a man whose body was recovered in July this year from Jhelum near Maloora area of Srinagar district. The deceased, Shameem Ali of Chattabal here was missing from 5 July and his body was recovered on July 19.

After inquest proceedings, the police converted into case (F.I.R. No. 137/2022) under Sections 306, 452, 427, 506 IPC.
“The duo was granted bail on furnishing bail bonds to the tune of Rs. 1,00,000/- and personal bond of like amount,” the advocates told GNS.
The court also asked the accused not to leave the territorial jurisdiction of the court without seeking prior permission, hamper or tamper with the prosecution evidence and also co-operative with the investigating agency as and when directed.
