Bail application of Ram Bharat, younger brother of Baba Ramdev was rejected by the District Judge here in course of the hearing held in the district court of Haridwar on Tuesday. The bail of seven other accused involving the bloody clash that occurred on 27 May at Patanjali Herbal Food Park was rejected too. The clash claimed one life as a local transporters’ union activist Daljit Singh died. During the hearing, the District Judge tagged Ram Bharat with two more sections — 112 and 114 of IPC. Next hearing will be held on 11June.
If bail plea of Ram Bharat is again rejected in the district court the lawyer of the accused might move High Court, sources said. It may be mentioned that the bail plea of Dharmendra Chauhan, who had lodged the complaint against Pantanjali was also rejected in the same court on Tuesday. Dharmendra Chauhan was arrested by the district police three days after the incident when Ramdev’s close aide Acharya Balkrishan had slammed police for acting partisan on the case.
