Maudany’s wife seeks bail relaxation to meet husband
By IANSMonday, September 20, 2010
KOCHI - People’s Democratic Party (PDP) leader Abdul Nasir Maudany’s wife Sufiya, an accused in the 2005 Kalamassery bus burning case, Monday moved a petition for relaxation in her bail for two weeks to go and meet her husband, who too is in a jail in Bangalore.
She made the petition to the special National Investigation Agency (NIA) court here. The hearing will be held Wednesday.
The special NIA court, on two occasions in the past, relaxed her bail plea for going out of Ernakulam district to meet her husband who was then holed up at the PDP headquarters in Kollam.
She got bail from the Ernakulam sessions judge Dec 23 last year on the condition that she surrender her passport and not go out of Ernakulam district.
Abdul Nasir Maudany, an accused in the 2008 serial explosions in Bangalore, was arrested by a Karnataka police team from his party office complex in Kollam district in Kerala Aug 17, and is now lodged in Bangalore’s Parappana Agrahara jail.
The arson attack on the bus took place Sep 9, 2005, when alleged PDP activists burned a Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation bus at Kalamassery to protest authorities refusal to release Abdul Nasir Maudany from prison.
