NIA Court Denies Bail Plea Of Accused In RSS Worker Murder Case: Karnataka

An accused in the 2016 murder of an RSS worker was denied bail for the third time by a special NIA court in Karnataka. Asim Sheriff has been in detention since November 1, 2016, and is "accused number five" in the case. The bail argument was rejected because the Supreme Court "clearly held that successive bail application is maintainable only in changed circumstances, but not on the same grounds."
