Amritsar, November 13: Khadoor Sahib MP Amritpal Singh has been granted one-day interim bail by an Amritsar court to attend the last rites of his grandmother, Mata Charan Kaur, who passed away on November 8.
Amritpal Singh, who is currently lodged in Dibrugarh Central Jail in Assam, has been granted temporary relief to attend the family ceremony. According to the court-related developments reported on Friday, the permission is scheduled for November 14.
However, a fresh development has emerged as his legal team is reportedly seeking a change in the date. His lawyers are said to be approaching the court to request permission for November 17, citing difficulties in making the necessary arrangements for his journey from Assam to Punjab within the available time.
The development has drawn attention as the family awaits his presence for the final rites of his grandmother. The court's permission is limited to one day and is specifically linked to the family occasion.
Amritpal Singh's temporary relief does not amount to regular bail or release in his pending cases. He continues to remain in custody, subject to the applicable court and custody orders.
Further clarity on the requested change of date is awaited.
