Kanimozhi can’t be at home this Diwali
NEW DELHI: Justice O P Saini reserved orders for November 3 about the bail plea of Kanimozhi. After over five months in jail, the DMK was hoping that Karunanidhi’s daughter Kanimozhi would finally get bail but now it does not seems possible.
The Supreme Court even the CBI counsel UU Lalit told the special court that it does not oppose Kanimozhi’s bail plea but at the end of the day Justice O P Saini scripted an anti-climax when he reserved orders for November 3.
Earlier Kanimozhi’s lawyer Altaf Ahmed argued that given the Supreme Court order, her own good conduct and Kani’s minor son’s welfare, court should grant her bail even if it was to impose conditions.
Special public prosecutor told the court that ‘CBI is not opposed to granting bail to Kanimozhi and 4 other accused.’ The disappointment after the postponement was obvious.
Kanimozhi was heard saying “we have done what we could, what else could we do. It’s sad that I could not be home for Diwali but we will continue our legal battle”.
