A district court in Morbi on Saturday rejected the further remand application of four of the suspects arrested in the case of suspension bridge collapse that killed 135 people on October 30. All the suspects were sent to jail under judicial custody.
The police had produced the suspects before the court of chief judicial magistrate M J Khan and sought further remand. Government pleader H S Panchal said, after court proceedings, that police wanted further custody to cross verify in the presence of the accused of documents collected from Morbi and Rajkot collectorates.
Panchal said that court also rejected prosecution’s plea seeking a stay on rejection of further remand.
