Update on former Cong MLA Asif
Former Congress Okhla MLA Asif Md Khan, who was arrested for allegedly misbehaving with police again in January, has completed more than 14 days of his judicial custody, according to lawyer Mohd. Areeb Hasan.
Areeb told the OT over phone that they had filed for bail for Khan and the hearing was held today. The announcement has been reserved and most probably it will happen on Wednesday, said Areeb, who is part of lawyers’ team of Khan.
