Mumbai: The family of Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, whose father passed away in Uttar
Pradesh's Etawah town, has decided not to hold the funeral until
the accused in the 2008 Malegoan blast case gets bail, her lawyer
said Saturday.
"Her family has decided not to perform the funeral until Sadhvi
Pragya arrives for the last rites," her lawyer Ganesh Sovani told
IANS.
The body of Chandrapal Singh, an Ayurvedic medico, was taken to
his native village Lahar in Bhind district of Madhya Pradesh
Saturday afternoon.
Sadhvi Pragya's siblings, including two sisters and a younger
brother, are present in Lahar, he said.
Sovani will move a special "temporary bail application" at the
residence of the Special National Investigating Agency (NIA) and
Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) Court Judge Y.D.
Shinde in Mumbai Sunday.
"I will intimate the NIA and seek her release for 13 days as per
the legal provisions," Sovani added.
Sadhvi Pragya is under the judicial custody of Mumbai's MCOCA and
NIA court, but presently lodged in a Bhopal jail. She has also
been implicated in the Sunil Joshi murder case of December 2007.
Sovani said that Sadhvi Pragya will give an undertaking to the
court to make two trips daily to the local police station during
her "temporary bail" period to attend her father's funeral.
