Supreme Court Directs Delhi Court to Conclude 2008 Serial Blasts Trial in Six Months
The Supreme Court directed a Delhi court to complete the trial of Saquib Nisar, accused in the 2008 Delhi serial blasts, within six months. Nisar's bail plea was declined but may be reconsidered if the trial is not concluded in that timeframe. His lawyer requested temporary bail for family visits, citing long custody since 2008. The court acknowledged the importance of family contact, referencing past cases where temporary bail improved inmate behavior. Earlier assurances to finish the trial within six months have not been met, prompting the extension.
