Delhi coaching centre flooding case: Delhi court rejects bail for driver and basement owner in Rau’s IAS study centre flooding case, that lead to three tragic deaths.
A court in Delhi on July 31 (Wednesday) rejected the bail pleas of an SUV driver and four owners of the coaching centre basement in the Old Rajinder Nagar area which was flooded with rainwater and led to the death of three civil services aspirants.
Judicial Magistrate Vinod Kumar rejected the bail plea of driver Manuj Kathuria and basement owners Tejinder Singh, Parvinder Singh, Harvinder Singh, and Sarabjeet Singh.
"All the bail applications are dismissed," the judge said.
Mr. Kathuria has been accused of driving his Force Gurkha car through the street that was flooded by rainwater, causing the water to swell and breach the gates of the three-storey building and inundate the basement.
The four co-owners have been charged with abetting the offences.
The five accused were arrested on July 29.
Earlier on July 28, a magisterial court had sent to 14 days judicial custody Rau's IAS Study Circle owner Abhishek Gupta and coordinator Deshpal Singh.
