New Delhi: Vikas Yadav, convicted for killing Nitish Katara, on Wednesday moved the Delhi High Court seeking bail for four days.
Yadav's lawyer told the court that Vikas needed to attend to some property related matters.
Hearing the plea, the Delhi High Court asked the Delhi Police to reply to the bail application by November 22.
In the bail plea, Yadav sought an order suspending the life sentence, awarded to him by the trial court, for four days.
He claimed that his personal presence is required for preparation and execution of GPA appointing his mother as the lawful attorney to manage and control the property purchased jointly by him and his mother.
According to the petition, in 1992 they had bought a property in Vasant Vihar and that his mother was facing difficulty in controlling the property without GPA.
The accused had earlier sought interim bail for a week's period ahead of the festival season on the ground that there was a delay in hearing of his appeal by the high court. However, the court refused to entertain the plea.
Vikas and Vishal had kidnapped Nitish Katara, an MBA graduate and son of an IAS officer, on the intervening night of Feb 16-17, 2002, from a marriage party at Ghaziabad and later killed him.
Vikas was opposed to his sister Bharti's intimacy with Katara.
