The Delhi high court on Thursday asked the National Investigation Agency (NIA) if it is willing to release Jammu and Kashmir parliamentarian Engineer Rashid on custody parole so that he can attend Parliament's ongoing budget session.
NEW DELHI:
The first part of the Budget session of the Parliament began on 31 January and is set to conclude on 13 February. The second part of the session will commence on March 10 and conclude on April 4.
A bench of Justice Vikas Mahajan asked special public prosecutor Akshai Malik to seek instructions despite the agency's opposition that the Engineer's release even on custody parole involved security concerns.
