Police opposes bail to Kanda in Geetika suicide case

New Delhi: City police today in Delhi High Court opposed the bail granted to former Haryana minister Gopal Goyal Kanda in the air hostess Geetika Sharma suicide case saying it had "seriously" prejudiced the trial.

"Moreover, this is not a case of financial fraud, which is based on documentary evidence. Here, a life has been lost and a court decision should always keep this fact in mind."

He also alleged fabrication of medical records of Kanda's wife to secure bail for the former minister, saying that while one set of records suggest that her name was Meera Devi, other records cite it to be Saraswati Devi.

Moreover, these medical records surfaced after Chadha got bail from high court on the grounds of her parents being ill, he added.

The court has now fixed May 15 as the date for hearing the plea of Ankit Sharma, brother of Geetika, seeking cancellation of the bail granted to Kanda. The counsel for the former Haryana minister would rebut submissions of Delhi Police on that date.

Kanda and Chadha are facing trial for the offence of abetting the suicide by the 23-year-old Geetika, who was earlier employed as an air hostess in Kanda's MDLR airlines.
