NEW DELHI: Delhi Police has started investigation in a case where a murder accused submitted a forged RT-PCR report before Delhi High Court seeking an extension of interim bail. Police registered a case on Monday.
According to police, three people were arrested in a murder case in 2019 reported in Paschim Vihar. One of the accused, Prince Dixit, filed two separate bail applications. After the hearing, the court granted interim bail to Dixit on the ground that the mother of the petitioner expired on September 12, 2020. “Dixit was supposed to surrender in jail before March 15, 2021,” the officer said.
Later, Dixit’s counsel filed another application seeking extension of bail on the ground that he (Dixit) was suffering from Covid-19.
