Delhi High Court Extends Interim Bail of Malviya Nagar Hotel Owner on Medical Grounds
The Delhi High Court has extended the interim bail of Lovkesh Bajaj, owner of a Malviya Nagar hotel where a fire killed 23 people in June, by six weeks on medical grounds. The extension follows his major abdominal surgery and subsequent complications. The court directed verification of his medical documents and allowed the State to seek bail cancellation if any documents are found inauthentic or his condition misrepresented. Bajaj must surrender after the bail period ends.
