Court rejects bail plea of ex-AMC 28 Mar 2008, 0150 hrs IST,TNN AHMEDABAD: A special court on Thursday rejected the bail application of Kishansinh Tomar, former standing committee chairman of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation on technical grounds. Special additional sessions judge MT Unadkat refused to entertain Tomar's bail petition observing that he was neither arrested by police nor had he ever surrendered before, therefore, there is no reason to seek bail from court. Tomar moved the special court, constituted to deal with Dalit atrocity-related cases on Wednesday on the Gujarat High Court's direction. When Tomar approached the high court on March 19 to seek anticipatory bail after a complaint was lodged against him, Justice ZK Saiyed ordered a stay on his arrest and directed him to appear before the special court if he wanted to obtain regular bail. Tomar's counsel Hiralal Gupta claimed that High Court, in its order, didn't mention that Tomar was granted interim bail or anticipatory bail. "Hence, the lower court refused to entertain the regular bail petition," he said. Tomar approached courts after a complaint was lodged against him on March 13 alleging him of threatening people in Pickers Chawl in Gomtipur area in order to vacate the land.
