High Court Rejects Amritpal Singh’s Bail Plea
The Delhi High Court on August 5, 2025, dismissed the interim bail application of Amritpal Singh, denying his request to attend to his wife’s gallbladder surgery. Singh’s plea cited urgent family needs.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) strongly opposed the bail application. The agency argued that the family’s financial situation did not necessitate Singh’s release.
The NIA further highlighted the upcoming trial in its opposition. Amritpal Singh remains in custody following his arrest in December 2023 on charges of heroin smuggling.
The court’s decision underscores the seriousness of the charges against Singh and the NIA’s determination to pursue the case. This ruling has implications for other similar cases, highlighting the judiciary’s approach to balancing individual needs with national security concerns. The ongoing trial will be closely watched.
