On September 16, the Supreme Court in Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh, revoked the bail granted by the High Court to Shahid, also known as Shad Mansoori, in the Ashok Arora firing case. The court ordered Mansoori to appear before the trial court within two weeks. This decision came after a bench led by Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Shri Chandrashekhar.
The case was registered at the Neemuch Cantt police station under Sections 307, 341, and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act. According to the Supreme Court's order, charges have been filed against 12 suspects, while two are on the run and six are already on bail.
Mansoori had previously obtained bail from the High Court following the recording of statements from key witnesses, Ashok Arora and Narayan Singh. The High Court also took into account the parity with co-suspect Aashiq. However, the Supreme Court determined that their alleged roles could not be considered equal after reviewing the investigation material and the chargesheet. Consequently, the apex court nullified the High Court's bail order and instructed Mansoori to surrender within the next two weeks.
