PTI reported that suspended Jammu and Kashmir DSP Davinder Singh, who had been arrested while ferrying two Hizbul-Mujahideen terrorists in a vehicle on the Srinagar-Jammu Highway earlier this year, was granted bail by a Delhi court today. Singh and Irfan Shafi Mir, another accused in the case, were granted bail in a case filed by the Delhi Police’s special cell. The court noted that the agency failed to file a chargesheet in the matter even after 90 days of the duo’s arrest. Singh had been arrested on March 14, and Mir, on March 19. The bail was granted on a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh and two sureties of like amount.
Singh moved a Delhi court on Wednesday, seeking bail. In his application, his advocate said that the accused are not required further for custodial interrogation and that no purpose will be served by keeping his clients in further custody.

“The accused are wrongly and falsely implicated in the case. There is no material/ evidence to show the existence of any conspiracy to commit any act with intent to threaten or likely to threaten the unity, integrity, security or sovereignty of India and there is also no material to substantiate that the accused had the intention or conspired to carry out terror strike,” the application said.
Singh was suspended from the Jammu and Kashmir Police in January this year. The Special Cell had brought him to Delhi from Hira Nagar Jail in Jammu and Kashmir.
He was arrested in a case related to planning/ execution of terror attacks in Delhi and other parts of the country. According to the police, he used to chat with other co-accused and militants of Hizbul Mujahideen through various internet platforms.
Earlier, the police had told the court that Sayed Naveed Mushtaq, the commander of Shopian district of Hizbul Mujahideen, and others were planning to execute terror attacks in Delhi and other parts of the country as well as carrying out targeted killings of protected persons.
“Mushtaq, along with other militants of Hizbul Mujahideen, was planning to execute terror attack in Delhi and other parts of the country and targeted killings of protected persons,” the police told the court.
Delhi Police has filed an FIR under Section 120B (criminal conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The FIR said the youths of Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab are being trained for carrying out terrorist activities.
