NEW DELHI: An Uttar Pradesh court on Tuesday ordered the police to arrest Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh along with Samajwadi Party leader Anoop Sanda and four others for missing hearing in a 2001 protest case.
“The court has directed the police to arrest all the accused and produce them in the court by August 28,” a court official told PTI.
This came after a non-bailable warrant which was issued on August 13 against Singh, Sanda and others, with the hearing set for Tuesday.
The Sultanpur court has ordered the police to produce the accused on August 28.
Their lawyer, Madan Singh, said that a bail petition for Singh and Sanda has been submitted to the Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court, with a hearing scheduled for August 22.
On June 19, 2001, a protest against inadequate power supply was led by former SP MLA Anoop Sanda near an overbridge close to the city’s Sabzi Mandi area. Sanjay Singh, along with former councillors Kamal Srivastava, Vijay Kumar, Santosh, and Subhash Chaudhary, participated in the demonstration.
