Ludhiana, December 1
The Court of Judicial Magistrate Harsimranjit Kaur today again ordered the issuance of non-bailable warrants of arrest against Lok Insaaf Party chief Simarjit Singh Bains, MLA from Atam Nagar constituency, and six others in a rape case registered on the complaint of a 44-year-old for December 10.
During the last hearing too, the court had issued arrest warrants, which came back with the report that the accused could not be arrested as he was not found at home. Harish Rai Dhanda, counsel for the complainant, appeared before the court and raised questions about the functioning of the local police. He alleged that MLA Bains was publicly holding political rallies and the police were making false reports about his non-availabilty.
The FIR was registered on the orders of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Harsimranjit Singh in July 2021. But none of the accused has been arrested.
