The lawyer and his company were not granted bail in the Bambous court on Monday. They were returned to police cell. Akil Bissessur and Doomila Moheeputh will have to return to court on Thursday 25 August.
Doomila Moheeputh’s lawyer Neelkanth Dulloo has filed a bail application. The police will have to explain the status of the investigation. After the explanations the police will give on Thursday, Akil Bissessur’s lawyer, Sanjeev Teeluckdharry, will decide if he will file a bail application.
Recall that yesterday, Bail and Remand Court magistrate Prashant Bissoon did not grant bail to Akil Bissessur. He explained that he agreed with one of the arguments of the police, namely that there was a risk that Akil Bissessur would contact witnesses. It is worth recalling that on Friday evening, the police arrived at Doomila Moheeputh’s house, where Akil Bissessur was staying. 52 grams of synthetic drugs were found.
