Chandigarh. The Punjab and Haryana High Court has allowed the regular bail plea of Kalyani Singh, daughter of Himachal Pradesh High Court judge Justice Sabina. Kalyani Singh got this bail in the murder case of famous national level shooter and lawyer Sukhmanpreet Singh.
The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Tuesday allowed the regular bail plea of Kalyani Singh, daughter of Himachal Pradesh High Court judge Justice Sabina. In 2015, he was granted bail in the murder case of national level shooter and lawyer Sukhmanpreet Singh popularly known as Sippy Sidhu. The order was pronounced in open court by Justice Sureshwar Thakur, who had reserved the judgment on September 3.
Kalyani had argued before the court that the special CBI judge, who rejected his bail plea, failed to appreciate that the investigating agency was not able to bring any fresh evidence. Beyond whatever evidence was available to him at the time of filing the report on 2020.
Kalyani, a lecturer in a local government college, had approached the high court on July 27 for bail after her plea was rejected by the trial court. Former Judge of Punjab and Haryana High Court Justice S.S. Sidhu’s grandson Sippy Sidhu was shot dead on September 20, 2015. His bullet-ridden body was found in a park in Sector 27 here. During the investigation, the CBI had found documentary evidence which suggests that Kalyani and the deceased were in a romantic relationship. (IANS)
