PANAJI: The High Court today adjourned the hearing on the anticipatory bail applications filed by the former Sarpanch of Village Panchayat Arpora–Nagoa, Roshan Redkar, and the dismissed Panchayat Secretary, Raghuvir Bagkar, in connection with the Birch fire case, to Monday.
The matter had come up for hearing earlier this week, during which both applicants sought protection from arrest while the investigation in the case continues. The court, after hearing preliminary submissions, decided to defer the proceedings and listed the matter for further consideration on Monday.
Redkar, who has been disqualified as the Sarpanch of VP Arpora–Nagoa, and Bagkar, who has been dismissed from service, had approached the High Court after a lower court rejected their applications for anticipatory bail.
