The Orissa High Court on Wednesday granted an interim conditional bail to Patnagarh parcel bomb blast case accused Punjilal Meher.
The court granted him bail from January 24 to January 28 for conducting post-funeral rites of his mother, who died this month. It has asked Meher not to speak to mediapersons during the period.
Notably, Meher had performed the last rites of his mother Indumati earlier this month after getting a one-day parole from the Additional District Judge of Patnagarh. He has been lodged in the Balangir jail for the last two years.
